M40 J6-J8 New Average Speed Cameras.

[Chris344]

There are planned road works in this area starting from the 10th Sept. they started installing SPECs around the 15th. There's no 50mph signs yet but the average speed cameras are there.

Does anyone know whether they are they on yet? Went through this evening and didn't see them in the pitch black until I got past a pair. The road works have not yet started and again, there are no signs indicating a reduced speed limit yet.

There was no pre warning of roadworks in the next 3 miles, 2 miles, 1 mile etc. Then no reduced speed limit, or free recovery signs. However, there were no Camera Not In Use signs. So I assume it was NSL.

Thanks guys.

I think when they are active then there will be spot lights on etc near them. Don't believe they have flash built in.

Anyway, there should be a sign next to the post saying CAMERA NOT IN USE.

They were the new smaller SPECS, I believe they don't need a spot light as they are laser?

Thanks for all your input, I guess I'm over reacting.

I always stick to roadworks speed limits and sit at 50 when sign posted so it would be annoying if anything came back.

I even stick to 70 when through smart motorways when the signs are off. I'm quite careful.
