Council warns motorists to put the brakes on near Black Isle schools

Motorists on the Black Isle are being warned that part time 20mph speed restrictions have been introduced at another two school for children’s safety.

The new speed limits are in force at Culbokie and Resolis Primary Schools.

This will be the 98th School in the Highlands to have a 20 mph speed limit in place.

Motorists are reminded that if they speed in the vicinity of Highland schools then the penalties will be tough. The Highland Council, Northern Constabulary and the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (Highlands and Islands Area) are clear that if motorists are caught speeding near Highland schools where a 20mph limit is in place, then robust enforcement action will be taken by both the Police and the Procurator Fiscal Service.

Drivers travelling near Culbokie Primary School should be aware that the 20mph part time speed limit applies on school days from: 8:45 to 9am; 12:45 to 1.30pm; 3pm to 3:15pm; and 4pm to 4:15pm. At Resolis Primary the new part time speed limit applies from 8:30am to 9am; and 3pm to 3:15pm.
