Dear all,

Members of your safer neighbourhood team have been out yesterday conducting a speed enforcement operation in Craven Arms, along the B4368, Clun road (40mph section) 

There were many vehicles seen on the road whilst there throughout the afternoon, whilst most were within the posted speed limit of 40mph there were a small number of vehicles traveling in excess of the posted limit, however this was an overwhelming minority I am happy to report. Thank you to all road users I saw yesterday for this! 

The average speed recorded whilst we were out was: 

 -36mph
The highest recorded speed was:

 - 44mph

Speeding is a priority for us as it is one of the four main factors we see that lead to deaths and serious injury on our roads. Road users seen who were driving in excess of the speed may be subject to enforcement action. 

Drivers can receive a minimum fine of £100 and 3 points on their license if they are prosecuted for the offence of speeding.
