It does, it's listed on the Wandsworth map. if you view a surrounding Borough then you only see cameras from that Borough.

They wouldn't want to make it too easy now!

this bit mentions redflex but the location doesn't seem to match?!

if it IS redflex then it seems to be just another trade name for a redspeed cam (redlight and speed)

There don't appear to be any traffic lights in the photo?

The camera mentioned in Bracknell is at traffic lights. These traffic lights are always being jumped and there have been numerous accidents as a result.

My guess would be that, in some places, these cameras are used simply as speed cameras rather than redspeed and, in those locations, the video footage is used to monitor traffic - eliminating the need to install both speed and CCTV cameras.

So where did the idea that THIS (A3 Kingston turnoff) camera is a "Redflex" come from?

There are no traffic lights, it doesn't appear on the map and it doesn't look anything like any of the examples on the Redflex website.
What have I missed?

Was it This?

Or are there mixed messages? Confused

That's the post I was thinking of, but I can't see any evidence either on the LCP site or the Redflex site.

I couldn't see the connection either, other than THIS, could it be a type of camera someone has noticed?
This camera seems to have more than one post in the ground, as on the setup you have photos of - even if the camera style is different?

Has anyone been able to go back there and see if they have finished installing it yet?

I looked last weekend but it was still as photographed, i.e. work in progress.

Weirder and weirder...

So the pole BEFORE the camera now has a black sensor pointing at the oncoming traffic and a flashgun (rather than a floodlight probably! Laughing ) pointing towards the rear of the camera.

And still nothing on the other pole?
