Thank you for your follow up email which we received on 16 May 2023, asking for structural loading tests for the installation of ULEZ cameras.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy.
As I explained in my previous response, we do not hold the information you have requested. A risk assessment determined that the risk associated with attaching the cameras to existing traffic signal posts was low. Therefore, no structural testing was required for these installations as they were within the loading allowances of the original design and the risk assessment made allowance for the existing condition of the traffic signal posts.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
