Brighton plans new traffic cameras to enforce five road rules

Brighton plans new traffic cameras to enforce five road rules

Brighton & Hove City Council is asking residents for their views on proposals to install enforcement cameras at five busy junctions.

Drivers caught ignoring existing restrictions could get a £70 Penalty Charge Notice, with a six-month warning period initially.
