40 km/h zone cameras

The 40 km/h zones are located in places with a high concentration of pedestrians (near schools and shopping strips) and also where road work is being undertaken. There are 34 fixed road safety cameras across the state that enforce in 40 km/h zones. In addition to these cameras, mobile cameras continue to enforce speed in 40 km/h zones.

The 40 km/h zones are located in places with a high concentration of pedestrians (near schools and shopping strips) and also where road work is being undertaken.

Research [1] has shown that a pedestrian who is struck by a vehicle travelling at 40 km/h has a much higher chance of survival than if the vehicle was travelling at 60 km/h.

The road safety cameras provide a significant deterrent and the number of people caught speeding or running red lights in these zones has decreased since the cameras were introduced in 2014.

The map below displays the location of all fixed road safety cameras that enforce in 40 km/h zones.

Please note that the crash data presented on this website is subject to change. Injury classifications may be re-evaluated or updated over time as additional information becomes available through ongoing investigations or medical assessments. As a result, figures relating to injury severity, and casualty crashes may be revised.

A serious injury is defined as one resulting in hospitalisation. Casualty crashes include both serious and minor injuries but do not include crashes where only property is damaged.
