Thank you for your two requests received by Transport for London (TfL) on 27 and 28 July 2021 asking for information on 1. the number of penalties given out by the ANPR camera on the southside of Waterloo Bridge on Sundays, since TFL extended the number of days and duration of congestion charging and 2. the Congestion Charge ANPR camera on the south side of Waterloo Bridge. Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. I can confirm that we hold the information you require. Please provide information on the number of penalties given out by the ANPR camera on the southside of Waterloo Bridge on Sundays, since TFL extended the number of days and duration of congestion charging. Our cameras may capture a vehicle multiple times on its journey through the zone, however we only retain the images from one camera site for the purposes of issuing a PCN. There have been 1,171 PCNs issued using images from the cameras at this location since the changes were introduced on 22 June 2020 and 18 July 2021. Please provide me with the make and model of the Congestion Charge ANPR camera on the south side of Waterloo Bridge. I would also like to have all records of technical flaws – please let me know the number of times and duration that the camera in question has not been functional and how often it has returned errors. The camera is a PIPS 372 ANPR camera and there are no recorded technical faults with the camera.
