THE first year of Silchester Community Speed Watch is being hailed as a success, with more than 400 vehicles recorded speeding during the 16 days covered by the Speed Watch team in 2013.

Those caught speeding are sent a letter advising them of the 30mph speed limit.

The group is now looking to recruit more volunteers. To find out more, contact Sue Pragnell on 01256 881220 or email sue.pragnell @pragnell.org.
