Two new white cameras on pylon type (I presume safer to crash into) supports have appeared on the A422 between Buckingham and Deanshanger - they do a have a small blue post near them which suggests it maybe a Trafficmaster camera, however Trafficmaster haven't replied to my email on this. I don't get a signal on my AA roadwatch 1800 - mind you I can't see an aerial on the cameras like normal Trafficmaster ones.

Has anyone else seen a new/different type of Trafficmaster cameras anywhere?

Try this TRAFFICMASTER spy site, does it look like the first two images?

The aerial seems to come out of the top of the post!

Nope doesn't look like any of those. But the small blue post does.

They could be NPR cameras looking for vehicles without Tax or MOT's Wink
I'm told one site is now permanent near us in Surrey. Rolling Eyes

Found out what the cameras are - they on trial for up to a year to monitor traffic by a company in Milton Keynes called Counters and Accessories http://www.c-a.co.uk/. Unfortunately won't be part of Trafficmaster network. Shame would have been useful.

If you have the location of these "cameras" it might not be a bad idea to submitt them to the site but add into the comments field exactly what they are, this way when someone else informs the site of a camera at that location the details are stored and it can be rejected as its known to not be a speed camera.
Only a couple of months ago I spent a quite a while looking for a submitted camera location only to find it was a CCTV camera over a shop door 8O - Mike
