Speed cameras in Paris and on the ring road: what the file shows
The list and map of Paris’s fixed cameras are open below; switch département for the inner suburbs.
The list of fixed cameras published by the French Interior Ministry on data.gouv.fr, dated 30 December 2025, counts 35 cameras in Paris: 23 standard fixed cameras, 11 red-light cameras and 1 discriminating camera. The file contains no tower camera and no average-speed camera, so no average-speed check is listed on the boulevard périphérique, the ring road. Of the cameras with a published limit, 19 check 50 km/h and 3 check 30. The ring road itself went from 70 to 50 km/h from 1 October 2024, along its whole length on 10 October, according to the City of Paris. On a 50 limit, a fixed camera takes off a 5 km/h margin: measured at 62 km/h, you are recorded at 57 km/h, which costs €135 and 1 point. Mobile cameras and camera cars, common in the city, appear in no public file.

The ring road at 50 km/h
According to the City of Paris, the boulevard périphérique limit went from 70 to 50 km/h from 1 October 2024, first on the inner carriageway from Porte des Lilas to Porte d’Orléans, then everywhere on 10 October. On a 50 limit, the steps of article R413-14 come quickly: 20 km/h recorded excess, or 75 km/h measured, costs 2 points; 30 km/h excess, or 85 km/h measured, 3 points and a possible suspension. The thresholds are set out on the under 20 km/h over page.
Red lights and parking
A red-light camera measures no speed: it photographs the vehicle crossing on red, which costs €135 and 4 points, as the red light fine page explains. Unpaid street parking involves no camera: it leads to a post-parking charge set by the City, covered on the parking fines page.
