Scarborough's Fire Crews have embarked on a safety clean up over the bank holiday weekend.
The local fire crews have been doing their bit to keep road users safe by cleaning some of the areas road signs.
The team have focused their efforts on speed limit signs to help road users observe the limits through local villages.
North Yorkshire Police warned last week of a ‘perfect storm’ for serious collisions over the bank holiday weekend, with a huge surge in traffic due to fairer weather, the long weekend, the easing of some lockdown rules and motorists’ skills going ‘rusty’ during lockdown.
They say that motorists will notice a strong police presence as extra traffic units are deployed to key areas, including villages and rural routes.
The operation will use marked police cars and motorbikes and highly-visible safety camera vehicles will cover as many locations as possible. Unmarked police vehicles will also be used.
It comes amid concerns from residents in many North Yorkshire villages about speeding drivers and motorcyclists making their communities unsafe.
