Thought it might please some of the locals here :D

You mean the one just past the bridge going North? That's a 70mph road there anyway and should never have had a camera in the first place.
They won't replace it as I'm sure they have boosted their revenue with the ones they installed on the other side of ring road north of Farsley. They ones have really helped congestion

It is that one, but the speed limit there is 60, until you get to the NSL just past the scamera. There are painted lines a bit further up in the 70 where they never got round to putting a scamera in place though.

Yep, you're correct (my brain's out of gear today). I just use the camera as the rolling start line.
