To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what criteria his Department used to select the sites to be used for the new noise camera trials announced on 30 April 2022.
The shortlisted sites in Bristol, Great Yarmouth, Keighley and Rubery were chosen based on a number of factors, including the ability to use existing infrastructure and street furniture, and the type of vehicle noise problem at each site in order to achieve a sufficiently wide range of road types to test the noise camera technology. The current trials completed on 1 February, with data from the trials being evaluated later this year. If the trials prove to be successful, noise cameras may be considered for wider rollout.
