Average Speed Camera Locations in Australia

Browse 29 mapped average speed camera records across Australia. Use the national map, compare state coverage and open a state page for road and suburb detail. Point-to-point cameras that calculate your average speed between two points, rather than your speed at a single point.

How Average Speed Cameras Detect Speed

Average speed cameras (also called point-to-point or P2P cameras) use automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) at two or more points along a road. They record the time your vehicle passes each camera and calculate your average speed over the distance. If your average speed exceeds the limit, a fine is issued.

Detection Method

Average speed cameras use infrared ANPR readers and generally do not produce a visible flash.

These counts describe records in the dataset, not enforcement frequency. Open an available area page for local roads and map context; every marker remains visible on the national map above.

Average Speed Camera Locations by State

Mapped records have coordinates and appear on the map. Approved sites identify roads or suburbs where mobile equipment may operate, but do not show a live deployment.

Common Questions

Can you speed up and slow down between average speed cameras?
Average speed cameras calculate your average speed over the entire distance. While you could theoretically vary your speed, if your average exceeds the limit, you will be fined. The safest approach is to maintain a consistent speed at or below the limit.
How far apart are average speed cameras?
Average speed camera zones vary in length from a few hundred metres to over 20 km. Longer zones are typically found on motorways and highways.
Are average speed cameras expanding in Australia?
Networks and eligible vehicle classes change over time. Check the relevant state road authority for current corridors and operating rules.
