A1 - one of the few major roads still with cross roads on 70mph sections (near Grantham), but preotected by (for once) safetly related cameras.


Hi all, lots of very good arguments, but on the section of the A1 concerned, there are lots of crossovers on the central reservation and only 1 camera on each carrigway and the crossovers are both before and after the cameras, so if they are SAFETY cameras, why ar'nt there more.

I note the A52 was mentioned and there has been some horrific accidents on a short section of that road (6 killed in one incident) with no cameras on that section

I am a member of the emergency services and have to go and clean up the mess, dont get me wrong, I also ride a motorbike and hate the speed restrictions enforced, but something has to be done about the carnage a Road traffic incident leaves.

I await the replies Denis

It is, quite simply, cheaper to install cameras and say you are doing it for safety purposes, than to rebuild junctions into roundabouts and/or flyovers.
