New average speed cameras - M4 - Heston Eastbound

[Stig]

Just a heads-up.

Over recent days, what appear to be average speed cameras have been installed on the Heston stretch of the M4 where the NSL drops to 60mph.

I noticed the first a few days ago, but some of the mounting posts had no cameras on them. Today, all present and correct!

So expect them to be switched on soon (if not already).

Is that a temporary 60 mph with temporary AS cameras for works, or all permanent?

No, this section has been 60mph for years now. Basically the stretch with what was the bus lane (then Olympic VIP lane).

However, first pass would suggest they are all forward facing, so bikes should at least be ok.

You need to look closer - they're rear facing so us bikers are as vulnerable as cars
