Disclaimer

This partnership has the capability to operate all Gatso speed and red light offence detection cameras in the Lothian and Borders region at any time. They can detect offences 24hrs a day and during hours of darkness and they are not lane specific.

The deployment schedule might be subject to change according to operational priorities.

Every year all existing and potential camera sites across Scotland are assessed according to strict guidelines set by the Scottish Safety Camera Programme. The guidelines are based on the number of casualties and collisions, length of site, type of camera and speed survey documentation.
