Apologies I posted this in another Forum then realised I should post it here:
Hi All
I recently submited several new locations (Grimsby Area)
2 Truvelo's and several mobile locations
On the new database released yesterday the mobile locations I submitted are now shown but the Truvelo's are still missing
Just wondered why this would be ?
Would I be right in thinking that the static locations need to be manually checked before they can be added but the nature of the mobile locations are difficult to check so they are added automatically ?
Thanks for any help

No, ALL sites are verified. Mobiles however become pMobiles until verified as these are very difficult to physically check. Fixed sites such as your Truvelo's are verified by a visit and whilst we endeavour to do this ASAP we can't guarantee a time scale.

we've had a few of reports for the truvelo's but they are that spread out it's impossible to even guess a location for them yet!! hopefully a verifier will arrive shortly!

Hi MaFt
Pretty sure that my location report for the 2 Truvelo's is fairly accurate
I drove to them & parked in the camera service bay & stored them as poi's in the 70mph Gatso PGPSW file & navigated back to them just to check
[at least I have the warning on my SatNav until they are confirmed  ]
I think the grey one is a bit out of order, very difficult to see especially when the light is failing, a bit like the famous one that used to be behind the road sign a few miles down the road at Caistor on the A46 that has been removed now
BTW: It has been proposed to reduce the speed limit as part of phase 2

i'm pretty certain that each of the submitters believed there's to be accurate too!!
hence we wait for lots of submissions and/or a verifier!
