Mobile speed camera locations in Powys for May 2025
There are set to be a number of mobile speed cameras active across Powys in May, including on major roads including the A470.
Speeding is one of the largest contributing factors to collisions on Welsh roads, according to GoSafe - a partnership made up of authorities including the Welsh Government and Wales emergency services.
Not only is it dangerous but it can land you a fine and points on your licence.
UK speed limits explained
What is the penalty if you're caught speeding?
The minimum penalty for speeding is a £100 fine and three penalty points added to your licence.
In certain circumstances, drivers will be eligible to attend a Driver Education Course, which will incur a cost, but you will not have penalty points added to your licence.
The GoSafe partnership aims to "make people safer on Welsh Roads by reducing casualties and saving lives".
So to keep drivers safe and reduce speeding, GoSafe has mapped the location of every single speed camera set to be active in Wales in May.

A55 drivers warned to expect 'occasional' delays this weekend
A55 drivers are being warned of occasional disruption while work takes place on a railway bridge in Conwy. Essential maintenance is scheduled this weekend on the bridge parallel to the Conwy Road crossing which carries traffic between Llandudno Junction and Conwy Town. The work is taking place overnight, starting on Saturday, June 7, and running until Monday morning, June 9. Maintenance staff will be on site between 10pm and 6am both nights. During these times, traffic between the Conwy Tunnel and junction 18 for Llandudno Junction could potentially be affected. Traffic Wales has warned of 'occasional traffic stops and rolling roadblocks' while the work takes place. Nearby, work has also begun on a new off-road path to connecting Llandudno Junction and Glan Conwy. The 2km active travel route is designed to make journeys easier, safer and more accessible for pedestrians, cyclists, wheelchair users, and people with prams and mobility scooters. Active travel improvements have already been carried out by Welsh Government at Junction 18 of the A55. These are being linked to Glan Conwy via a three metre-wide lit path around the RSPB Conwy bird reserve. The route will also connect to the bridge to the Cob for onward travel to Conwy.

Car idling outside schools putting kids 'health at risk'
Plaid Cymru's Delyth Jewell MS raised concerns in the Welsh Parliament, highlighting the impact of parked vehicles with running engines on air quality, particularly outside schools. Ms Jewell said: "Stationary idling is something that people do sometimes without thinking, but it is so deeply damaging to children's lungs." She called for a ban on stationary idling to be introduced before the next Senedd election. Ken Skates MS, cabinet secretary for transport, supported the call and described the behaviour as 'truly antisocial. Mr Skates said: "I just cannot comprehend why parents would leave their cars idling around not just their children but other children." Joseph Carter, head of Asthma + Lung UK Cymru, warned that children are especially vulnerable to emissions, despite idling already being an offence. He said: "Car idling produces up to 150 balloons of exhaust emissions per minute."

Big change to how people use taxis in Swansea put forward
Big change to how people use taxis in Swansea put forward It follows concerns about people being left stranded but taxi drivers, passengers and others are to be consulted before the changes are introduced Taxi drivers might have to carry card payment systems to provide easier payment for customers (Image: Richard Swingler ) A Welsh council is considering making it mandatory for taxi drivers to carry card payment equipment after concerns were raised that some passengers would be 'put at risk' through a cash only payment method. Swansea Council has launched a public consultation for taxi operators and the public about the introduction of new rules that would make it necessary for all taxi drivers to offer a card payment option to customers. It said the move came after 'concerns raised by the public' that passengers risked being 'stranded' if they were not carrying cash. The council added that though several taxi companies and individual drivers already used card readers or provided an option for people to pay via a smartphone app, there were several taxi drivers that provided cash only means of payment. This, it said, put people who didn't carry cash, relying on modern payment methods like google pay or contactless payments, at risk of being stranded as they could not pay their fare. Never miss a Swansea story by signing up to our newsletter here There are 318 hackney carriages and 636 licensed private hire vehicles that are currently licensed by the city council. These figures exclude private hire vehicles. Article continues below The council will be consulting hackney carriage and private hire vehicle proprietors and drivers, representatives from the hackney carriage and private hire trades, Unite Union, representatives of equality groups and the public (through city council social media). The proposed rules are: The proprietor shall ensure that passengers are given the option to make payment for all journeys, via a debit card, credit card and contactless card payment. The proprietor shall ensure that all drivers of the vehicle are trained on how to use the card payment system and are aware that passengers must be able to have the option to make payment in this manner. Where a fault in the card payment system is identified, the proprietor must arrange repair/replacement within 48 hours. You can have your say through the Swansea council website by clicking here. David Hopkins, deputy leader and cabinet member for corporate service and performance, said: "As a council, we recognise that more and more people are using less cash these days to pay for services and are opting to use more modern methods such as contactless payment. "At the moment, there are no rules in place that state taxi drivers must carry card payment facilities as part of their licensing conditions. This can put some passengers at risk of being stranded if they only have card payment options and are not carrying cash." He added: "We are doing what we can to manage this issue at our busy city centre taxi ranks using our taxi marshals to identify passengers that are not carrying cash and require a taxi with card paying facilities. "These passengers are provided with a safe space to wait until a taxi is available. "We want to consult with taxi companies and individual licence holders to look at the benefits and implications of making it mandatory for proprietors of licensed vehicles to have card payment technology in their vehicles. We are also keen to hear from the public about the plans." Article continues below
