Is this a speed camera? It has a speed camera sign on it.

It seems to have three cameras and an infra-red light?

Could be a height sensor to warn/protect the overhead wires.
The height warning signs before the yellow pole on Google maps is the clue.

How would that work, there is nowhere to "display" a warning if the height is exceeded?

Although it would be good if this could be done as it would stop the numbers of high vehicles hitting bridges every year.

Red light cameras,look in the distance and there is another one monitoring traffic from the other direction.

I have the same cameras on the same style of half barrier crossing just up my road.

Thanks. I can see it now. Each pole has two cameras and two IR lights.
