Overview

  • On August 4, the DGT activated 32 new speed-control points—seven fixed and 25 average-speed radars—across 11 autonomous communities, launching a one-month warning phase.
  • The AP-9 average-speed radar between km 155.22 and 158.98 in Vigo started operating on August 4 and is already issuing fines for sustained overspeed.
  • A second average-speed device on the N-550 in Vilaboa began recording speeds this week and has moved from warning letters to penalty notices.
  • Valencia’s V-30 radar from km 4.650 to 8.850 is live under the same notification moratorium, with informational letters sent to drivers exceeding limits.
  • On the A-8 Saltacaballo stretch between Ontón and Castro Urdiales, the limit was raised to 100 km/h and full enforcement will replace warnings on September 1.
