The use of speed cameras on Irish roads is to increase by 20% in response to “worrying trends” around increasing road fatalities, the justice minister has said.
Helen McEntee said an additional 1.2 million euro is to be allocated for GoSafe vans, providing for an extra 1,500 hours of monitoring per month until the end of this year.
