M50 gantrys

    Don't often travel on the M50, but was noticing the other day that there are quite a number of them on it now.

    I noticed a couple had the lines marked on the road after them, presumably these will have speed cameras mounted in them; do they have cameras installed yet?

    What about the rest of them, will they have cameras in them, and/or will they have information signs mounted in them?

    Except for the ones around the toll area, they all looked pretty vacant. Anyone know when they are likely to be populated with equipment?

    The lines currently have no cameras in place, they may just be decoys.

    Most of the gantries are designed to hold lane control signs but there appears to be no plan to install these yet.

    Thanks for that.

    It explains why lots of cars were buzzing by, knew that there are no cameras in place. Others like myself probably listening to our GPS's giving warnings every few km. Keeps us on the right side of legal though, just in case there are any mobile checks, with the M50 for the most part 100km/h, it's very easy to slip over that now an again.
