Would anyone be able to confirm for sure whether there is a speed camera or only a speed warning sign at holt pound on the A325?

Not really

Quote:
A former proposed fixed camera site on A325 at Holt Pound (East Hampshire) is being replaced with a speed reactive signing scheme. This is due to technical difficulties in finding an acceptable location that would fully accord with the Government's camera conspicuity criteria.

In otherwords they have found that is does not need a camera.. :roll:

Sounds like a letter to the SCP is called for... :wink:

The rules for fixed sights are far more stringent than mobile ones.

Yea, well the only reason i was asking was because it is listed on the Hampshire SCP as a fixed camera site but when i drove through there(at the speed limit!) i dont recall seeing one, but i DID see a speed warning sign, one of those that flashes up your speed as you go past. Bit of an aimless gripe i know but there we go... lol :lol:
