Temporary average speed cameras introduced along an eight-mile-long stretch up the western shoreline of Loch Lomond to cut speeds and reduce the number of accidents have finally been removed.
The average speed cameras were deployed on a temporary basis following an increase of speeds and injury collisions on the A82, between Luss and Tarbet.
The site was previously enforced by Police Scotland Safety Cameras at several locations across the route using the mobile enforcement van.
The average speed cameras, which replaced the mobile enforcement temporarily, have been shown to be more effective at enforcing speed limits over a greater distance, and discouraging dangerous driver behaviours.
The speed limit was enforced there from September to November. The cameras commenced enforcement from Monday, September 23.
Speeds and injury collisions on the road were monitored throughout this deployment by Police Scotland Safety Cameras.
However, during the enforcement period 131 offences were recorded, with vehicles detected travelling as fast as 108mph on the route.

Injury collisions on the road also reduced during the period of the camera’s installation in comparison with previous years.
There have been consistent injury collisions on this stretch of road between August and November for the last three years – resulting in nine injury collisions, with five of these causing serious injuries and one resulting in a fatality.
Between the cameras being installed in August until their removal there were no injury collisions on the stretch of road.
The portable technology was first introduced on Scotland’s roads earlier this year.
Alan Bowater, West Safety Camera Area Manager, said: “We would take this opportunity to remind drivers that speed limits are in place for the safety of all road users. Driving above the speed limit can have serious consequences for everyone.
“Police Scotland continue to actively encourage every vehicle to remain within the speed limits for the road, whether that be through local policing or the use of safety cameras.”
