UPDATED *** Another Camera Added 17/04/04 ****
5 CAMERA'S - 5 CAMERA'S 5 CAMERA'S

4 Speed Camera's on M53, between Junctions 4 - 5.
Where all the new Road works are.
Where a '50'mph is enforced.

And a New 5th Camera under the last bridge
before B&Q Junction 1. (west).
This is also part of temp road works.
You have been warned...

That's the whole idea to have them while the road works are
taking place. Yeh the bags were still on Friday 20th Feb, but the camera's are in place and will start
flashing soon enough !!

They are for the road works..

When this post started they we being put in place and it was a week or so after that the plastic bags came off. And i just though that i should mention that the bags are off and there flashing away now...

Yeh when the roadworks are finished the camera's will probably be removed !!!

Hope this helps ??

Need to watch for the one West Bound, Eastham Rake ! Its just behind the sign that gives you the distances to Liverpool & Birkenhead..

If your in the inside lane you might be too late.

Hope this helps ?

It my understanding that the type of camera's on the M53 are only calibrated to 50pmh.

So when the Road Works are eventually finished i'm pretty sure they will be removed....

Do you ever see those camera's on 70mph zone ??
That's why they use the spec camera's in 70mph zones...

Ive no ref about the camera's being calibrated at 50mph but ive never seen them active in a 70mph zone !!

The lines that could have been seen previously there were from the last road works..

Hope this helps
