The precise figures reported by the Council were 3445 vehicles travelling northbound on Manor Mount with 85% travelling at less than 23 mph and 398 travelling southbound with 85% at less than 30.9 mph. Perhaps no surprise that those going the wrong way are also travelling faster - perhaps because they are the ones who are in a hurry to get somewhere at any cost.

The figures will include a number of Manor Mount Residents who have done U turns but have not actually driven through the No Entry sign (but are still driving the wrong way down a one-way street). The count covers a period of one week.

I suspect that speed cushions and / or kerb build outs in Manor Mount would simply encourage the illegal drivers to weave all over the road with even less capacity to avoid other road users.

At ?60 a time, a mobile camera could raise over ?20,000 a week, which should surely be enough to justify its existence - although I suspect the revenue might drop off quite quickly as repeat offenders learn it's not such a good idea to ignore the one way! They might get some for speeding as well as going the wrong way since at least 15% are doing more than 30 mph which I presume would be 6 points for one hit.
