East Safety Camera Unit announces short term deployment on B937 Ladybank Woods, Fife

18/08/2025

The East Safety Camera Unit will commence a short term deployment of the mobile safety camera van on Monday 18 August 2025 on B937 Ladybank Woods, Fife. After liaising with Giffordtown and District Community Council and local policing, this road was identified as a site that would benefit from safety camera enforcement, as community speedwatch activity had found a significant number of motorists were exceeding the 40mph limit.

Police Scotland Safety Cameras aim is to reduce the number of people injured on our roads through targeted camera enforcement and improving driver and rider behaviour. Short term deployments allow the East Safety Camera Unit to respond to emerging issues and seasonal traffic patterns. The deployment will be periodically reviewed to assess whether further enforcement is required.

East Safety Camera Unit Manager, Michael Grant said “Concerns had been raised by the community council and local policing about vehicles consistently speeding on the B937 between the A92 Freuchie/Ladybank Junction and Giffordtown, with community speedwatch data evidencing the need for enforcement. With villages situated on the B937 and in close proximity, it is vital to comply with the 40mph speed limit for the safety of all road users.”
