Is there Speed Cameras in the Dartford Tunnel?

As the title above suggests

Taking my car through there next week and don't want to get caught enjoying the sound of the car through the tunnel

[Squiggs]

Not sure if there are any cameras but given the volume of traffic that use it the chances are you won't exceed the limit anyway

[davetherave1970]

There are average cameras on the approach but not sure if they are active all the time or just when speed restrictions are in force.

Think the ones inside are traffic cams for tunnel control. Yet to see any legislation reference anything more

If there is, I should have a fair few tickets coming through.

I hope not

Care on the way back though as the bridge now has average speed cameras (50mph)

Get there before 0600 and you cross for free

Unless you get a speeding ticket, then it's an expensive crossing.

I was wondering who would mention that first

[AlLondon]

Dont think so, but the police sit on the exit alot so be carefull.

I cant understand why you would break the speed limit. Surely 'the game' is to slow down and then ferociously accelerate, repeatedly with your window open...

The speed limit is 50. My car is loud but slow, so that's plenty
