You asked
I was somewhat alarmed and distressed to see you have erected a ULEZ expansion camera, mounting pole and box in the heart of the historic Harrow on the Hill Conservation Area (near the Hill Shop, Bursar and Vaughan Library) (adjacent to a pinch point).
Under the Freedom of Information Act, kindly supply all permissions, emails (e.g. discussions with heritage experts, Harrow School, Harrow Council etc.), designs and so on related to the deployment of this equipment.
