In Grafton Rd NW5 there is a short stretch which is northbound-only
for a few hours in the morning and southbound-only for a few hours
in the evening. There is a pair of cameras to ensure the law is
upheld. How much does a pair of cameras like this cost to install,
and how much to maintain?

I've seen figures of £10,000 per camera bandied about.

Is that the cost of a Gatso? The cameras I'm talking about have a simpler
job to do.

A lot will depend on if you have to dig up the road
to put power in.

I doubt you will see any change from 100K if you do.

In London providing a power connection would cost much less that.
Probably £500 or so, since most roads already carry an electricity
main. Don't know about the cost of the cameras though.
