Good Afternoon The Highways Agency Information Line has received a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, as detailed below. The customer has asked for the number of prosecutions through Nottinghamshire on an average week due to road users exceeding the 50mph speed limits on the M1 through Nottinghamshire. I feel this will be more appropriately responded to by your department. I have enclosed a letter for your attention. I have advised Mr Walker that I have forwarded his request to you. Should you have any queries regarding the above, please do not hesitate to e-mail or contact HAIL on 08457 50 40 30, quoting reference 8875116.
