Merseyside drivers warned over A55 speed trap catching out hundreds

Drivers have been warned to be vigilant of an A55 speed trap catching out hundreds of holidaymakers.

A temporary 40mph speed restriction is in place on the North Wales road between Abergwyngregyn and Talybont, Gwynedd while a £30m scheme to improve safety is underway. The A55 access roads are being removed and eight gaps in the central reservation are being plugged as part of the roadworks, while a new parallel road, with underpasses, is being built for farm vehicles.

ECHO reader Anthony Martindale was incensed when he was penalised after he was caught speeding on both directions between junctions 12 and 13 on February 6. The motorist fired off a letter to the ECHO as he was fined £100, awarded three points on his licence and ordered to take a driver's awareness course costing £90 - as North Wales Live reports.
