Thanks for the info.

Work will be carried out 24-hours a day Monday to Saturday, with occasional work on Sundays, A 40mph speed limit will be in place for the whole 12-week period. Cameras will measure drivers' average speeds through the roadworks to ensure the safety of drivers and road workers.
Well, there were no signs to say it was a 40mph limit, If there was then I would have been sticking to it especially once I clocked the specs cameras. Also, there were no workers there on Friday evening at around 5:30pm, and as mentioned no 40 signs (they usually warn you about a mile before you hit the limit and for the duration) and again on Sunday no workers and no 40 signs.

Nice to see I wasn't the only one to notice there was no speed restriction in place over the weekend. I'm hoping it's not being enforced yet, and maybe the camera's are'nt working yet....but it'd be nice for someone to confirm if the limit is being enforced this week as I am not going to cover that road for the next couple of weeks.
