Kaz200 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Ok I'm confused, where on the bypass? There are very obvious speed cameras between cooper and the next exit heading north, in fact the whole underside of the bridge is lit up in pink neon at night.. can't miss them (theyre on both sides too). I don't know of any other cam's but I haven't been past cooper much. The tiny ones at the rusty old bridge before Cooper.. I was under the impression they were safety cameras rather than revenue raising? Heading NTH up the ring rd - cameras are: just after exiting the westgate to ring rd, just before McMobil exit (1)... then after McMobil at Western Hwy exit (2).. then keilor park underpass, its on a bend (3), then as you head up the hill under pascoe vale rd (4). Oh and a recent addition is at Millers Rd on the westgate in both directions. From the westgate northbound they are definately not point to point but the one at Keilor park is a variable speed limit one in line with the new variable speed signs.. I don't know about Melbourne Rd/Geelong... but I did see camera technicians sitting in fold up chairs behind the fuse? boxes at every camera on the princes fwy a month ago or so tho Anyway I'm on the ring rd everyday and I haven't had a ticket in 4 years. And without turning this into a speed camera thread.. does anyone know whats up with the citylink toll gates? Around xmas they replaced a row of cameras at each gate and we suspect they are speed cameras.. but.. not 100% sure on that. Anyhoo have fun guys and take it easy... just watch out for the cameras when you have to put your foot down for 2 secs to avoid someone merging into you....

I was under the impression they were safety cameras rather than revenue raising? If the rusty old bridge is the one I am thinking of with the two cameras just before you go under it standing on poles, they the new ones are past that towards the city and look exactly the same but appear after at least one bridge, possibly two or more.

CrispyFries Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I just called to confirm my booking for tonight and tomorrow. I suggest if you're in the 8:30 cruise you call and find out what cabin you're in as they've had some extensions and things have been shuffled a bit. They'll be in bed by the time we get there, so keys need to be organised to be left in the cabin. I was also asked to remind people to drive at walking pace and not be too loud.
