M4 Junction 13 - 12 today - Laser in operation???

[Fat Audi 80]

Hi,

Did anyone else see a couple of guys in hi vis vest standing on the bridge over the M4 next to the services between J13 & 12 east bound today? It looked to me like they were operating a laser mounted on a tripod?

Would be interested to know if anyone else saw this?

(It was about lunchtime today...)

Cheers,

Steve.

May be the start of a trend for this part of the M4 as a few weekends back the trafpol were up on one of the mounds between J12 and J13 westbound with a hand held laser.

For mounds; read = "Observation Platforms"...

If you look on the M4 through Wiltshire there are camera signs erected but covered at the moment. On the news recently it said they were going to enforce 70 on this section because of all the accidents. As I use this every day the accidents are usually early morning lorry drivers falling to sleep. I suspect it is more to do with the sterling work on behalf of HM taxes that South Wales do showing a disparity in neighbouring areas rather than any other reason.
