Average Speed Cameras on A23

While the upgrade to the A23 is on-going, please be aware that Average speed cameras are in place between Handcross and Warninglid to enforce the 40mph speed limit, the first time such cameras have been used in Sussex. The cameras, which are installed and operated by Sussex Safer Roads Partnership (SSRP), will help to keep the road operating safely while narrow lanes and a changing road layout are in place throughout the two year project.

It is felt that Average speed cameras offer a much more effective method of managing safe speeds along a section of road than could be achieved with either mobile or fixed speed camera enforcement. Initial indications from the A23 Average Speed Camera system show that the vast majority of motorists are complying with the 40mph speed limit, which is good news.

Average Speed Cameras use Automatic Number Plate Recognition software to record a vehicle’s details as they enter and exit the protect zone.  The time taken to travel through the zone can then be used to calculate the average speed for the vehicle. Processing of any offences detected by the system will take place in exactly the same way as for other types of enforcement, with Speed Awareness Courses offered where appropriate.

The system – known as SPECS3 and developed by a company called Vysionics – has been being tested and calibrated since installation at the end of June. Although no offences have been processed while the installation period has taken place, the system has been registering when vehicles exceed the 40mph speed limit.

Spread the message for better Broadband in Bolney

As at 26th June, 52 people in Bolney had registered for better broadband which is a really good number compared to some local towns and villages but please spread the message for more people to back the drive by the ‘Better Connected’ partnership to win faster broadband services for West Sussex.

What have people done to show support?

Completed a registration form.

Where do I find the form?

Log on to www.westsussex.gov.uk/broadband or pick one up from your local Help Point or Library.

Why is it important to sign up?

To prove to technology suppliers that there is a demand that will make it worth them investing in the infrastructure

Why is it important?

Faster broadband will create jobs and boost the local economy. It will also reduce social isolation and help people to cut their bills by accessing on-line deals and services.

Does signing up guarantee better services?

Communities that demonstrate the strongest support are more likely to be included in the earlier stages of the Broadband improvement programme.

Registering your demand doesn’t commit you to anything but it will help to persuade suppliers it’s worth investing in the county.

We need the evidence for when we start talking to potential suppliers later this year so please sign up NOW!
