SID is dead

SID stands for Speed Indicator Device. These are the little flashing signs which tell you if you’re driving over the speed limit.

In 2011, the council allocated one to each Area Board, with criteria for where they could be used based on crash rates and ambient road speeds.

Towards the end of last year Wiltshire Council told parish councils they’d have to take over the costs of the scheme if they wanted it to continue.

Parish and town councils declined the invitation, so WC says SIDs will now be scrapped.
