Blue ones are TrafficMaster, thats something altogether different and while it used ANPR nothing is logged. Basically it samples traffic continually and times how long it takes ot get to the next pole to generate traffic patterns. From this the Trafficmaster computers work out the average speed of that section of road and relay it to their cutomers via TMC. The ROMANSE cameras in Hampshire do the same thing, hence you'll often see the matrix signs lit up with 'xx minutes to junction xx'

Trafficmaster does keep a record, thats how they caught a hitman who travelled up from London to Scotland, killed, and drove back a few years back, since then the green poles have started appearing, which is the Highways lots version so I'm told, and also interface with the PNC/DVLA database's...

Hobnailkelly:
Do they still work if you change lanes?

Evilgoat:
Yes, they track all 3 lanes.

Bunnie:
reading local news these cameras will be staying for the next 10 months while the work starts to widen the motorway between J11 and J12

Specs on the M27 ?  I didn't even know it had problems with its eyesight !

Although, it might explain why so many people can't see that bridge at junction 7  :doh:
