Specs on M60 Stockport

[planetdave]

Discovered to my horror a 40 limit both directions on the M60 in Stockport. There are yellow cameras on the gantries - I'm not sure if they are cosher but they're putting the willies up me.

Anyone know if they are 'live'?







40 I ask you. Try that on a motorway

Ludicrous, isn't it?

Still, just roadworks, eh? Worry not, they'll soon be orf to frisk another unsuspecting locale, the dogs.

Must say, I adore that bit of autobahn, coming out of Stockers where the surface has that coarse, orangey concrete feel, redolent of north european highways where the schnellic yeti roams with lusty hoofed abandon.

Thence to that new bit of tarmac 'twixt Cheadle and the Chavvord Centre, characterised by an almost tollular dearth of chundering numptitia, you are urged on by the spirit of the M25, 1986...

As far as I know, the "average" speed cameras are live, covering the roadworks, however, the ones covering the stretch between Ashton/Denton and Bredbury have now been removed..........

just remember to follow CoP advice not to dangerously change lanes so they can gauge your speed

I did espy that particular advice in the press yesterday - too late.

I'd already charged into the 'zone' with 'gay' abandon saying to myself 'I'll slow down when I see a SPECS tower with it's curly-wurly adornment'

But no! The miserable gits had installed the fiendish devices upon the gantries and my onward hurtling was undiminished

Double drat!

for the most part you cannot make decent progress anyway due to the backing up of the traffic. I am resigned to the progress of l'escargot and the melodramatic flopping of a NIP upon my doormat

ARSE!
