M42 - Mandatory Variable Speed Limits
The above goes live today, so watch for the speed limits flashing on the matrix signs. I guess if you go over, they'll now be using the hundreds of spped cameras they've installed.

Go live tonite ...not exactly difficult to figure out which gantries have camera's though!
What worries me more is that the 'advisory' limits that have been active for a fair while have been so inaccurate they've become virtually useless!!!

Passed through there yesterday. How much did all that lot cost 
Couldn't believe how many gantry's, and how many of them had camera's 
3 or even 4 across, one for each lane, on both sides 
You have to wonder how variable the limits are going to be, and are they going to try and catch people out. IIRC there used to have to be a speed limit sign visible within the frame of a Gatso picture to confirm the limit was suitably posted, so can these cams see the limit on the next gantry, or will it change from one to the next
So glad I don't live there and have to use that road regularly.
