From 1 March 2026 until the end of July, the Cantonal Police of Graubünden will publish the exact streets where its semi-stationary speed cameras are operating—a first for the mountain canton that hosts large flows of foreign holidaymakers and cross-border commuters. The pilot was approved after a parliamentary request in 2025 and is designed to measure whether transparency changes driver behaviour. Locations near hospitals, schools and care homes remain confidential, but all other sites go live on the police website 24 hours in advance. Violations will be analysed by vehicle origin (Graubünden, rest of Switzerland, abroad) so officials can distinguish tourist traffic from local flows. For mobility and assignment managers the experiment matters because speeding fines follow the driver across borders under Switzerland’s mutual-assistance treaties. Publishing camera sites could reduce infractions by staff on temporary assignment, but it may also concentrate checks in new areas. Companies operating lease fleets for ski-season staff should circulate the map and stress that unpaid Swiss fines can trigger collection actions or entry bans on future business trips. If accident rates drop, other alpine cantons may replicate the policy, further changing the compliance landscape for cross-border driving in Switzerland.
