Is there a guideline to advise how reversible cameras should be recorded on the PGPSW database when they are situated on the central reservation?

The A45 around Coventry and towards the M42 is a good example. Many of the cameras in this area are reversible on the central reservation. Some are recorded on the database as two separate cameras, while others are recorded as only one.

This gets quite irritating with current versions of TomTom where you can be warned of "both" such cameras from the database, even if there is only the one present in reality.

I realise that other brands of SatNav might function differently to TomTom, so this might affect the ruling, but can someone please tell me how such cameras should appear on the database? As a single reversible camera, or as two cameras - one on each side of the road?

if they are confirmed as reversible and the road is shown as 2 distinct carraigeways on the google map then they should be marked as 2 cameras.

Thanks for the clarification, MaFt. I'll double-check the ones that are only recorded once next time I'm down that way.
