SCB Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Watch your speed if u are coming from the Midlands etc a few miles before u get to monmouth is a straight road at the end is a hill which bends to the left maybe gatso van? after the Monmouth tunnel u could come across a gatso van parked up on the way to newport they also like to park on a bridge right next to bridge tolls m4 The van is often parked up in Pencraig too, where the road drops down to 50. They also often have cameras checking for tax on the bridge as you come down the big hill into Monmouth. Also on the M4 through Newport, theres cameras on a few of the gantries with variable speed limits. If you want to know what ones have cameras just look on the other side of the road and if you can see the camera then your side has a camera too (the second gantry after the Brynglas tunnel has a camera for a start) Also be careful of the bus lanes in Cardiff. I cut across the end of one last month (literally the last 2 or 3 metres) and got fined £30 - had I known I was going to be charged £30 I'd have used the lane form the very bloody start and saved 20 minutes in traffic! In short, once you leave the M50 at Ross on Wye the buggers are out to get you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
