Wirral Council is currently introducing automatic numberplate recognition cameras at one school
Wirral Council could put cameras up outside six schools on the Wirral to crack down on bad driving. The council said it is currently introducing automatic numberplate recognition cameras at one school but officers have suggested it could be rolled out more widely, The plans for new cameras were revealed during an environment and transport committee meeting during a discussion of highway network management plan.
In response to the question from Cllr Graham, Paul Traynor, assistant director for highways and infrastructure, said: “We have been granted the powers to enforce at School Streets and we are currently in the process of rolling out that enforcement activity as we speak. Clearly at the moment we are focused on the existing School Streets that are in place. “We have a wider programme to follow that and that will come forward to this committee to determine how best to prioritise that programme.
