Strange that the Tonbridge bypass cam had been removed when I went past a few weeks ago, and I can't find the one on the A1 at Colsterworth (Lincs), but there is one a bit further north at Great Ponton. |

This must be the permanent 50 mph specs cameras on the bend at Bredbury. They do catch people then. A lot of people! |

I guess it has taken its profits and gone to live a life of luxurious retirement somewhere sunny  _________________ Dennis

Well, it did look drunk for quite a long time, with a serious list to port, but as they had been working on or around it, I assumed thet the new angle was an experiment of some sort.
I wonder why they removed such a cash cow form there. |

Maybe they've ALL taken their profits and gone off to a luxurious retirement somewhere sunny? _________________ Dennis

Any more details on the locations?
I'd be interested to know which of the (many) cameras on the A40 Western Avenue it was. _________________ "Settling in nicely" ;-) |

Unfortunately not. The M60 specs were still there this morning. |
