QLD Increased speeding enforcement – 80kpm. M1 Junctions 49 – 57

Increased speeding enforcement, Coomera, Queensland.

Officers from the Coomera Road Policing Unit will be increasing enforcement on the Pacific Motorway at Coomera/Upper Coomera

This specific location is a roadwork site and is described as an 80km/h zone between exits 57 and 49 on the M1 in both directions.

The increased enforcement follows numerous complaints from road workers and motorists about speeding and tailgating vehicles.

Officer in Charge of the Coomera Road Policing Unit, Senior Sergeant Peter Liebig said that police are disappointed that motorists aren’t driving to the speed limit in the area which in turn is causing an increase in danger to other motorists and road workers.

There have been a number of minor crashes since September, but if people continue to speed in the area the risk of a major incident occurring increases substantially, ? he said.

Motorists may not see workers and assume they can speed through the site, but the speed has been lowered as the lane width has been decreased and it is important that a safe speed and distance is maintained through the site to ensure safe driving conditions are maintained and disruptions are eliminated.
