New traffic enforcement measures could be introduced at two busy junctions in Nottinghamshire. This includes the junction of Radcliffe Road and Trent Boulevard in West Bridgford, as well as the ASDA access off the B6166 Portland Street in Newark.
Currently only the police can enforce moving traffic offences, which include stopping in a yellow box junction and ignoring banned left or right turn signs. However, recent changes to legislation now mean that local authorities can apply to enforce these offences through the use of automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras.
And Nottinghamshire County Council is now looking for residents’ views on enforcing moving traffic offences. The local authority is planning to apply for new powers from the Government.
