It is a regular location, the 30 change is some distance from the van.

Yes it is now, but it wasn't until fairly recently, there was a 60 - 40 - 30 transition which didn't get down to 30 until closer to the village green IIRC. This might catch out a few people who 'think' they know the road and descend from the A40 on a trailing throttle...

Well quite a while as far as i can recall. Yep bound to catch quite a few off the national. However the signage is quite good there.

reason for the cam is residents complaining about speeds down the hill especially past the junction on the right as you go down.

Another favourite 'pedestrian friendly' site for the same van is at the side of the A4 between Slough and Langley pointing towards Slough. Difficult to see from this piccie but it actually park across a pathway and cycle path! ; http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=slough&countr...

Not too sure about the speed limit but am fairly sure it drops from 40 to 30 at the end of the reservation which would make sense as to why it parks where it does.

I'd guarantee that if some guy parked his van there on the pavement he'd get a ticket!

One rule for us... etc

At least you can see them there.

They don't always park there, only when there is no space on the other side of the road where there is a parking strip.

That is even cheeckier because you will not see them until you are coming out of the left bend.

The Thames Valley Safer Roads Partnership's website is a shambles - they still think it's 40 TVSRP and there seems to be no correlation between the site details on the map and those on the downloadable pdf list.
