Our Network Management team is preparing to apply to the Department for Transport (DfT) for Moving Traffic Enforcement (MTE) powers, which would help us to manage the road network.
The power to enforce moving traffic contraventions lies with the police however we are seeking to have these powers granted to us too from the Department for Transport (DfT).
The powers would mean approved camera devices could be used to enforce moving traffic contraventions. This would include:
- driving through a ‘no entry’ sign
- turning left or right when prohibited
- entering yellow box junctions when the exit is not clear
- driving where and when motor vehicles are prohibited, including on ‘school streets’ and for width/weight restrictions.
The 12 locations being considered
| Site | Location | Contravention |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Windsor Road service road | No Entry |
| 2 | Stoke Road/ Stanley Cottages | Yellow box junction |
| 3 | High Street/Alpha Street North | No Entry |
| 4 | Tuns Lane junction | Yellow box junction |
| 5 | Park Street/High Street | No Entry |
| 6 | Dennis Way | School Street |
| 7 | Wexham School | School Street |
| 8 | Holy Family School | School Street |
| 9 | Langley Road/London Road | Yellow box junction |
| 10 | High Street, Langley/A4 London Road | Yellow box junction |
| 11 | Farnham Road/Sheffield Road | Yellow box junction |
| 12 | Farnham Road/ Buckingham Avenue | Yellow box junction |
