The third of eight new fixed speed cameras around Tasmania will go live from tomorrow morning.

The fixed speed camera is on the Brooker Highway at Cornelian Bay, near the Domain Highway exit, capturing Hobart-bound traffic.

“In the test phase the camera has averaged 10 speed detections each day; this is fair warning that infringements will be issued from tomorrow,” said Senior Sergeant Ian Mathewson.

“Driver awareness around speeding is increasing, with detections from the Brooker Highway camera at Rosetta down to 16 each day and the Southern Outlet at Tolmans Hill is capturing around 2 speed detections each day.

“Speed remains the number one factor in fatal and serious injury crashes and our aim is to remind motorists to keep within the speed limit,” said Senior Sergeant Mathewson.

Infringements will be issued for speed offences from 10am Wednesday 16 September 2015.

The eight fixed camera sites will be spread throughout the State in locations that meet several criteria, including a high number of traffic crashes, a higher speed limit and a high volume of traffic. The remaining fixed camera sites will be complete by mid- October.

The $470,000 project, funded by the Road Safety Advisory Council, will make more police available to undertake other road safety duties, particularly on higher speed rural roads.
