Safety Camera Network

Gardaí use a range of speed detection technology to reduce speed across Irish roads. A reduction in speed will lead to a reduction in the incidence of fatal and serious injuries and will improve road safety for all road-users.

We are working closely with a range of partner agencies, including Government Departments, the Road Safety Authority, the National Roads Authority, and the community, in order to develop a national culture of safe road use.

The current outsourced service provider, GoSafe, provide a minimum of 9,000 speed enforcement hours and 504 survey hours per calendar month nationally. For the 9,000 enforcement hours, mobile safety cameras will operate from vans which are marked with high visibility reflective material and display a safety camera symbol. Image of mobile safety camera van is on the right hand side of this page. The survey hours will conducted from covert survey units, in order to accurately observe and record the speeds at which vehicles are currently travelling for survey purposes only.

These sections of the road network will be where An Garda Síochána will be primarily focusing enforcement. An Garda Síochána will use a range of equipment such as:

• Handheld and Tripod mounted laser guns
• ANPR detection equipment in both marked and unmarked vehicles
• Mobile Safety Camera Vans
