Málaga city is to introduce fixed radar speed-traps within the urban nucleus in an attempt both to curb speeds in the city and to reduce pollution levels.
For the first time, Málaga city will have fixed radar speed-traps and they are going to be installed just after Easter and should be fully operational by May. Installation will be at locations where drivers perpetually put their clog down.
The alternative to radar was the installation of speed bumps all over the place, but many roads apparently do not lend themselves to such devices and so the Council decided upon radar. Signs will be erected which warn motorists of the presence of the radar. Offenders will not only be fined but will also lose license points.
The radar traps will be installed as follows:
1: Entrance to Málaga via la avenida de Velázquez (direction town centre).
