Six fixed speed cameras will begin operation in the new Airport Link M7 tunnel when it opens, which is expected early tomorrow morning.
Police Minister Jack Dempsey said the new fixed speed cameras were part of the Queensland Police Service’s commitment to road safety in Brisbane’s new network of tunnels.
“Speed-related crashes are one of the primary killers on Queensland roads and the risks are compounded in a traffic tunnel,” Mr Dempsey said.
“Speeding in tunnels further increases the danger because any crash occurs in a confined space.
“We want people to be aware of these cameras so they adhere to the speed limit and reduce the likelihood of underground accidents.”
