You asked

The speed limit on the westway elevated structure from woodlane flyover to marlyebone flyover has changed from 50 to 40 to now 30 in a very short space of time. Can you please confirm to me what speed the “average speed check” cameras are now fining people for? And when did this change from 50 to 40 to now potentially 30.
