Community Roadwatch gives local residents the opportunity to work side by side with their local police teams, and use speed detection equipment to identify speeding vehicles in their communities. Warning letters will be issued where appropriate, and the information can help to inform the future activity of local police teams.

To take part in Community Roadwatch, or to suggest a residential area where there are community concerns around speeding (such as Heathfield Road or the Westerham Road), contact  Police Constable  Francesca.Miller-Lakin@met.police.uk  (Hayes & Coney Hall Ward Police) who will be in touch.
