Community Speedwatch

One of the most frequent complaints we get from members of the Public, is the speed of vehicles in our towns & villages.

If this affects you, perhaps you would like to consider giving up some time as a Community SpeedWatch Volunteer?

You can dedicate as much or as little time to this as you wish. You could be part of a team monitoring the speed of vehicles in any given area. You will receive all the necessary equipment & training, with support from Police. If you would like to find out more, visit the Avon & Somerset Police Website, & look for ‘Community Speedwatch’- or contact one of the Beat team here at Williton Police Station.
