Road Name: A134 - Mile End Road

Speed Camera Details: On passing under the A12 underpass down a dip you'll see the Colchester boundary sign on the uphill slope and the start of the 30mph zone. Over a mini roundabout, a set of traffic lights then round a 45-degree left hand bend (church to left) and down a hill. The camera is located in the dip of the hill just before a left turning into housing area called Tall Trees; the white lines on the road are easy to see. The next turning on the left after the camera is to Oaks Hospital where many out of town visitors may travel.
January 2017 update: This camera is faulty as it flashes all the time. I was going northbound and got blinded by the flash while driving home. This needs fixing
