Bus gate cameras on Broad Street, Birmingham?

[LR90]

I've been a bit of a plonker. I drove through a bus gate on Broad Street between Berkley Street and Granville Street.

Looking back at Google Maps, it's clear you should turn left into Berkely St, right onto Holliday Street, right onto Granville Street and then left back on to Broad Street.

Does anyone with local knowledge know if there's a camera there? I know I could just wait for the PCN to come, but I thought I'd ask here to a) set my mind at rest (potentially) and b) forewarn others of the bus gate.

To be fair, the bus gate is clearly marked. It's a fair cop. I'm just unfamiliar with the area now they've carved it up to put tram lines in and my attention was on dodging pissed-up club-goers. No defence, I know.

It seems like these days the cameras go up at the same time as the bus gates as they represent such easy pickings. I think your only hope is that the camera was not working.

Have you tried the highways site? Whenever I am worried I've missed a camera, I google 'Essex speed camera/red light etc locations' and up comes loads of information. Makes you sweat as you check.

Indeed, I just googled 'Birmingham bus gate camera locations' and the same, lists of where:

Do not know Birmingham well, far too North for me but I do not see 'Broad Street' on this list?

Thanks for finding this! I did a Google search but completely missed this.

Looks like I could be in the clear!

It's not the end of the world if I'm caught, I know, but I've never had a speeding ticket, parking fine, bus lane fine etc. in 20 years of driving and I'm keen to maintain my record
