You can't have it both ways. Either the speed restrictions are there

to protect the workers then what exactly are they for?

And don't even suggest that switching off the cameras at knocking off
time would be an arduous task to implement.

Often there are also narrowed lanes next to motorway roadworks with
50mph limits, so it wouldn't be safe to drive at 70mph, whether or not
there are any roadworkers present.

Often however there arn't - its just a lane closed off and nothing else
changed.
