Community Roadwatch – 1 July 2015
If you would like to take part in Community Roadwatch, or wish to suggest a residential area where there are community concerns around speeding, please contact your local MPS Safer Transport Team. To take part or suggest an area in the City of London, please contact City of London Police.
Transport for London is working in partnership with the Metropolitan Police Service and City of London Police to run Community Roadwatch - a road safety initiative which aims to reduce speeding in residential areas.
Community Roadwatch will give local residents the opportunity to work side by side with their local police teams, and use speed detection equipment to identify speeding vehicles in their communities. Warning letters will be issued where appropriate, and the information captured may help to inform the future activity of local police teams.
Community Roadwatch is being rolled out across London in phases, with a commitment to reach all London boroughs by December 2015.
If you would like further information about the initiative, please contact CommunityRoadwatch@tfl.gov.uk.
