School Zone Camera Locations in Australia

Browse 44 mapped school zone camera records across Australia. Use the national map, compare state coverage and open a state page for road and suburb detail. Speed cameras specifically monitoring school zones, with higher penalties during school zone hours.

How School Zone Cameras Detect Speed

School zone cameras operate during designated school zone hours (typically 8:00-9:30 AM and 2:30-4:00 PM on school days). They use the same technology as fixed speed cameras but monitor the reduced school zone speed limit (usually 40 km/h). Fines for speeding in school zones are significantly higher than regular speeding fines.
