Motorists using the Western Ring Road beware.
Fixed speed cameras located west of Sydney Road are on again and focused on speeding motorists in both east and west-bound lanes.
Deactivated during recent freeway works, the cameras have also undergone upgrades and been put to the test over the past four weeks, detecting more than 10,900 speeding offences, including 9533 in the eastern lanes and 1411 in the western lanes.
If enforced, 25 hoon drivers would have had their cars impounded for travelling more than 45km/h over the speed limit and about 180 drivers would have lost their licence after being caught travelling in excess of 25km/h over the speed limit.
Message signs will be in place for the next fortnight alerting drivers that “cameras now enforcing.”
