Assuming that referred to raising bollards rather than being a
euphemism, those are done by registration number too, not car colour.

Nope. In Cambridge it's by transponder.


More "was" than "is" now. The only transponder-operated gates left only
work for buses.


The rest are ANPR?


ANPR is now the preferred method of enforcement. The bollards near
Brooklands Avenue are quite new so they seem to be keeping them for now.
It's why the signage was changed to make the gates into bus lanes, in case
you'd missed that.
