yep
i drive over it every saturday to work they have been there a lot recently, and they will make a packet as people arent slowing for the new 50 signs
Even WORSE- is the camera just after the bridge going back over it. On the slip road between the M4 east/M5 north- which can normally be taken very fast ( hey i go past it at 4:30 am on a sunday), now has a 50 limit and a fixed gatso (old style with lines in the road) on the central reservation.
Sneaky- and very nearly caught me out the first week it was there as they hadnt put the reduced limit signs up at that point

Also watch out for the ones currently either side of the M5 Avonmouth bridge for the road works.... although you'll be lucky to actually get over 50mph there at the moment, the damn roadworks are costing me over an hour a day!
