tismemike Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Can anyone give me a definitive answer on the use of the different road cameras seen on motorway bridges etc. I think the blue square boxes beside A Roads are trafficmaster(??), but what are the green boxes seen above each lane of the motorway, and other strange fittings??
Smoke Screen Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 This: Green cameras The Highways Agency are now installing cameras on many trunk roads and motorways that are similar to the Trafficmaster cameras, but are coloured dark green. These are said to be for 'traffic monitoring purposes', we believe they are connected to the National Traffic Control Centre. In 2007 we were made aware that these cameras are part of the Highways Agency's NRTS system, which is capable of being used to support road pricing Was taken from Here Googled Green Motorway Cameras......1st link Matt Gilmartin, Sales Director T: +44(01205) 821111 | F: +44(01205) 820316 info@smoke-screen.co.uk | www.smoke-screen.co.uk Head office: 1-2 North End, Swineshead, Boston, Lincs PE20 3LR Registered in the UK no. 2728491
nikko Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 I'd be happy to explain what these cameras are, but in trade only forums. Can this post be moved? I went up into the attic...I found a Stradavarius & a Picasso. Unfortunately..... Stradavarius couldn't paint, and Picasso made a shocking fiddle.

satsuma01 Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 ? i agree with what your saying magpye, why only talk about these cameras in trade area, if all that is being discussed is their type of use? seems strange to me "If you carry your childhood with you, you never become old.

nikko Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Looking at the links to external websites, there's a question as to where the information from these cameras ends up and how it is used. This, whilst not being particularly sensitive information, I consider to be the type of information which many of us in the trade are privy to, and the general public must go through the appropriate channels to obtain.

Ok, but in this situation we are all the 'general public', aren't we? Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care.
