Craig Browne, Alderley Edge councillor and chair of Cheshire East Council's highways and transport committee said the village "welcomes nice cars, but some of the high performance vehicles are causing us a problem".

"It's rather the way the vehicles are being driven, it's not the vehicles themselves."

He said it was "an excellent use of the council's funding" despite budget constraints, because residents were "really fed up".

Mr Browne said he hoped other areas, such as Wilmslow would benefit, and once the camera's trial had been shown to be "successful", similar cameras could be introduced elsewhere.

The council is also introducing traffic-calming measures in the centre of Alderley Edge and a 20mph zone.


All that's necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing
