After police shared news of the operation on social media local people had their say.

Liz Mathieson posted: “It might be an idea to check the speed of motorists outside Carlton le Willows Academy on a school run long before they get to Burton Joyce.”

Hazel Chadbourne-Doyle called for more permanent measures to be put in place.

She posted: “We need average speed cameras installing. Speeding through the village is a regular occurrence.”
