EVADR EVADR Victoria
How it works

Understand what you’re seeing.

EVADR brings official Victorian camera and roadside-monitoring information into one map. It is an independent project, not a government service. Use it before your trip and follow road signs and conditions throughout your journey.

Approved does not mean present. Mobile-camera lists identify roads and localities approved for enforcement. They do not report where a camera is operating now. An unmarked part of this map is not an enforcement-free area.

Read the layers

Fixed camera

A location in the official fixed-camera map, plotted using its published coordinates. The feed does not reliably distinguish red-light-only and combined cameras; unspecified types remain unspecified. A certificate link is provided where available.

Approved mobile camera road

An entry in the official monthly speed-camera list. Dashed orange roads show an exact name-and-locality match in Vicmap. This is an indicative road alignment, not the precise approved setup boundaries. Entries that cannot be matched are searchable but not plotted.

Phone & seatbelt camera road

A separately published list of approved locations for trailer-based device and seatbelt detection. Purple dashed roads have the same indicative-location limitations. These are not live deployments.

Average-speed system

Blue square endpoints and blue road alignments show the Hume Freeway and Peninsula Link systems. Alignments connect documented sites using Vicmap roads. They are not surveyed enforcement distances, turn-by-turn routes or an exhaustive list of legally enforced camera pairings.

Traffic detector

Department of Transport and Planning sites that count and classify traffic (TIRTL infrared loggers and telemetry sensors). They are not cameras and do not issue fines.

Traffic camera

Documented roadside cameras used to watch traffic conditions, including the 16 CityLink webcams Linkt publishes for motorists. Monitoring only: enforcement and plate recognition are not established.

Council CCTV

Public-road CCTV published by councils. Geelong points come from a 2023 inventory, so current operation is unverified. Latrobe entries name streets only and are not plotted.

Why there are no yellow “danger zones”

General powers and site-selection criteria do not establish specific enforcement boundaries. We have not found authoritative local polygons suitable for a general-caution layer, so none are drawn. This avoids suggesting a camera is present or that another road is exempt.

Coverage & freshness

Snapshot checked 5 October 2026: 339 official fixed-map entries (including 22 average-speed endpoints), 2,086 distinct mobile road/locality entries and 313 distinct phone/seatbelt entries. Of these, 2,526 have map geometry; 212 remain searchable without it.

The mobile spreadsheet has 2,089 populated location rows and the phone/seatbelt spreadsheet has 382. Repeated identical road/locality pairs are grouped for display, while their original row references are retained. Counts are distinct published descriptions, not physical camera totals. We do not infer separate positions from duplicate rows.

Eleven fixed-map records have a blank commissioning-status field. Their cards flag this explicitly. Inclusion confirms official listing, not a fresh operational inspection. Source boilerplate sometimes describes a point-to-point system at an instantaneous-only freeway site; classification follows the government's system overview instead.

Postcode searches use postcode values supplied in fixed-camera records, plus verified Australia Post supplements for Bairnsdale, Drouin and Warragul. Coverage is incomplete; searching a town name is more comprehensive. No speed limits are inferred. Road matches require exact road and locality names; unresolved spelling variations remain unplotted. General start-to-destination routing is not included in this version.

Law, policy and operational guidance

These are different kinds of authority. A policy preference is not a statutory prohibition. The register below was checked on 5 October 2026; a source's current version should always be checked before relying on a specific rule.

AuthorityClassificationWhat it establishes
Road Safety Act 1986, v237
30 Sep 2026
LAWRoad safety and enforcement framework, including detection-device and evidence provisions. It does not give a public coordinate list of every permissible setup.
Road Safety Road Rules 2017, v026
18 Feb 2026
REGULATION / STATUTORY RULESRule 197(1)(c) concerns detection-device vehicles; (d) covers specified camera trailers and towing vehicles. Rule 205(3) supplies exceptions to signed parking-duration limits. These are specific exceptions, not a blanket right to stop anywhere.
Road Safety (General) Regulations 2019, v024
30 Sep 2026
REGULATIONPrescribed devices, camera systems, evidence and testing requirements. Other supporting instruments include the Drivers Regulations 2019, Traffic Management Regulations 2019 and Vehicles Regulations 2021; these are not mapped as deployment areas.
Gatso T-Series manual v1.5
April 2023; still linked by the current official legislation page
POLICE POLICY / OPERATIONAL GUIDELINESection 4.2 advises a 300 m separation from a speed-zone change, with specified exceptions and written authorisation. Section 4.3 addresses consistent speed zones and exceptions. This is not a universal statutory 300 m exclusion.
Manual §§4.10–4.11, 5.1, 6.1OPERATIONAL GUIDELINEDifferent road classes can qualify following assessment. Gradients are not automatically prohibited. Visibility, surface, pedestrians, driveways and traffic flow must be considered. Deliberate disguise is prohibited by the manual; no universal “no bends” legal exclusion has been established.
Current mobile-camera guidanceAGENCY POLICY / PROGRAM GUIDANCEFrom 2026, unmarked speed-camera trailers use the same camera technology and site-selection rules as vehicles. They can support longer sessions, including 24/7. Safety and visibility requirements continue to apply.
Site selectionAGENCY POLICYFixed locations are considered by a site-selection committee. Mobile locations are selected by Victoria Police using crash/trauma history, validated complaints and enforcement suitability. Criteria alone do not prove a camera is installed.
Average-speed systemsAGENCY EXPLANATIONPaired detection points measure average speed and may also enforce instantaneous speed. Officially surveyed distances are used for enforcement; our drawn alignment is not that measurement.
Road Safety Camera Commissioner Act 2011HISTORICAL / REPEALEDThe government reports repeal and abolition of the Commissioner role following March 2026 legislation. Current oversight functions are managed by DJCS. Older Commissioner reports remain historical evidence, not current deployment rules.

Updates that fail safely

Imports retain original files, row references, source URLs and SHA-256 checksums. Schema validation, duplicate grouping, coordinate checks and a change report run before publication. Unexpected columns or large changes stop the update for review; the published snapshot remains intact. Geometry is cached and exact matches are reused.

Official lists are re-checked monthly. Every change is validated and reviewed before it goes live, and if a source fails a check the last good data stays published. Dates describe the imported snapshot, not live camera activity.
