Speed watch volunteers needed
The Transport Advisory Group (TAG) of Sandgate Parish Council is looking for local volunteers to help with the speed watch campaign. Sandgate Parish Council now has an agreement to use the speed watch camera bought by Folkestone Town Council. Various members of the council and local residents received training in its use over the summer and are now ready to put it into practice, but more helpers are needed.
