This may have been asked before, I did search but couldn't find anything.

Anyway...

Lately I have noticed small grey/black cameras appearing. These are on top of grey poles which extend over the roadway almost like Specs cameras. They look nothing like specs otherwise, they are not yellow, they dont have the little boxes on either side of the camera etc.

I have seen a set at the top of Marlow Hill in High Wycombe and also at either end of St Albans High Street.

Does anyone have any idea what these are?

Thanks
 
these ones ?

they are just traffic jam ones
 
They didn't look anything like that, they were round in shape and rested on top of the horizontal pole.

Nice try though!

I haven't been able to find anything online.:(


are they rather small and theres usually 3 or so on each pole ??

They are small, there were 2 on the one at High Wycombe, I assume one for each lane. The St Albans ones only had a single camera for a single lane.

I forgot to mention that there was no second set which also leads me to believe that they are not specs.
 
interesting.

there seem to be these sort of cameras popping up on the A13 and the A406.
not 100% sure if they are the same, i'll try get a better look tomorrow on my way into work.
 
That looks like the kiddie! Although the ones I saw in St Albans were black.

I knew I must have missed a thread on here somewhere, very little seems to get by you lot! :D


Thank you.
 
I've seen some painted blue near Kirkby Lonsdale. There was a roumour that they shouted "SLOW DOWN!" at motorcycles, but they're just traffic flow monitors.
