You may have seen an odd looking speed camera set up in Perth’s Hills.

WA Police are looking at new elevated mobile speed camera technology, with a Victorian-based company bringing the prototype camera to Perth.

The device has been set up in Greenmount as part of a demonstration for police.

The camera, which can be raised up to 10m above the road, is designed to target mobile phone use as well as speed.

A WA Police spokesperson said they are constantly evaluating opportunities to enhance traffic enforcement.

WA Police already use long range cameras to catch drivers using mobile phones and are also trialling point-to-point fixed speed cameras on the Forrest Highway.

The Greenmount camera is not currently operational.
