Hi,

Please explain to me how accurate air quality data has been modelled for
the area just south of Crowcroft Park, on Stockport Road, when the ANPR
camera used to collect volumes and types of traffic has not been able to
connect to the internet successfully for a long period of time.

This long standing situation was rectified over the last few days, when a
signal boosting unit was installed on the opposite side of the A6 by a very
obliging gentleman who discussed the situation to me.

(N.B. Currently, the Levenshulme protest group is monitoring the levels of
airborne gaseous pollutants and particulate matter with a Zephyr Air
Quality Sensor and It will be interesting to compare this with the data
retrieved from when the reply to my recent FOI request is received. This
data is being shared with Client Earth and Extinction Rebellion's legal
team.)

Finally, please inform me if the other ANPR cameras on the Manchester A6
are performing adequately.
Regards,

Chris Hamer
