SPEED CAMERAS WILL BE OPERATING NEAR BRIGG THIS WEEK



Safer Roads Humber says safety enforcement cameras are used across the region as part of its overall strategy to make local roads safer. And a route near Brigg will be monitored this week.
Mobile and fixed speed cameras detect speeding vehicles "at sites of risk." They are able to deploy the cameras at a range of locations.
TUESDAY, JUNE 16: There will be 'daily enforcement' carried out on the B1206, Scawby Road, Scawby Brook.
Make sure that you stay below the limit when heading out of Brigg or coming towards the town on this well-used route leading to Scawby and Hibaldstow.
Meanwhile, the 'flashing' speed warning signs in our town, funded by the Town Council some months ago, continue to do a good job in terms of getting many drivers to slow down on the A18 (Wrawby Road) and the A1084 (Bigby High Road).
They indicate the speed of approaching vehicles - in red if it's above 30mph.
Brigg Blog is continuing to keep an eye, from time to time, on the number of vehicles being parked on the York stone paving at the eastern end of Wrawby Street near the bus shelter, due to this issue being raised with, and discussed by, the Town Council.
On Saturday night (June 12) four cars were parked there at 7.45pm. It's mainly a weekend problem after 6pm, observations over several weeks suggest. Concerns have been expressed about potential damage being caused to the paving slabs.
