View ON ANPR – Automatic Number Plate Recognition

We are looking to get your thoughts around the use of automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) in Cambridgeshire through a national survey(Click on link)

ANPR technology is used by our force and police forces across the UK to help detect, deter and disrupt criminality, including organised crime groups and terrorists.

The number plate cameras, which are governed by strict codes of practice, are most commonly used to alert officers to stolen vehicles, vehicles that have been involved in crime or to help locate missing people. The data they collect can also be used in investigations.

ANPR is a vital tool to help policing stay one step ahead of criminals and better protect people. Your views play an important part in how we do this. The anonymous survey will only take a few minutes of your time to complete.

Your views are important to us so if you have time to fill out the survey we would be grateful.

Todays Attendance Meetings..

I attended as the Ward Councillor, this morning on a ZOOM meeting considering LHI’s…
Local Highways Improvements, these are recommended by residents/public concerned with their immediate roads/paths/infrascructure.
There is a maximum of £15,000 available from Cambs CC and a 10% contributions from WTC.
One issue was/is speeding on various roads, the LHI for Ramsey Road/Church Street becoming a 20mph zone, however this is not fully supported by Highways @ Cambs CC or the Police, irrespective that some data states that there is an issue.
The latest installed MVAS (Motor Vehicle Activated Signs) on Ramsey Road, data shows several vehilcles in excess of 50mph (30mph limit) the fasted by 58mph.
WTC Councillors and Cambs CC Boden will still take this forward.

This afternoon’s FDC Cabinet meeting discussed the forward financial plan for 21/22, and
at present there are no plans to increase ‘Council Tax’.
However FDC having to support ‘Freedom Leisure’ during ‘lock-down’ to the tune of over £500,000 and provision for the coming year could be £310,000 in order to keep the 4 leisure centres being able to operate. It is hoped that once restrictions allow in April, the leisure centres re-open, the amount of financial support be reduced.

Another Close Shave….Station Road

All HGV’s are supposed to use Inhams Road/Station Road to access our small industrial estate….many believe that these residential roads are unsuitable, but until an alternative ‘Relief Road’ comes about (WTC Councillors are working on it) – then caution needs to prevail.
Picture RB..
