The Speed Indicator Devices (SID) we have in Bentley are positioned on Capel Road (opposite Rowan Acres) and near Highfields. Their purpose is to encourage drivers to adhere to the 30mph speed limit in this area. They both face incoming traffic entering Bentley from the A12 (Capel Rd) and A137 (Station Rd). However, they record data both for incoming and outgoing traffic. Both SID's are set to show incoming speed in red at 31mph (SLOW DOWN), in flashing red at 36mph (SLOW DOWN) and in flashing red (TOO FAST) at 41 mph or over. Incoming traffic of speeds between 9mph and 30mph will see speed in green (THANK YOU). Trafffic at speeds below 9mph won't trigger the display and data is not recorded. Bicycles do trigger the SID's. I can't vouch for horse riders! Outgoing traffic won't trigger the speed display but data is still recorded (a significant proportion of outgoing traffic on Capel Rd, heading towards Capel St. Mary, exceeds the 30mph limit). Both SID's are powered by a pair of lead-acid batteries which are kept charged up by solar panels. This basically makes the SID's maintenance free. SID data is downloaded onto a mobile phone by using an app (using a bluetooth wireless connection) and the data transferred elsewhere via email or cloud storage. This data can then be read by a Windows app to produce PDF and Excel reports. Both SID's can be fitted with Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) devices. This could assist with speed restriction enforcement. This has been trialled, but would require discussion and funding as a long term solution.
