Variable speed sign fault

Reported via desktop in the Electronic Sign (NH) category by Omar Osman at 18:48, Sat 25 May 2024

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6020322.

Gantry Sign was flickering but with no variable speed limit number just before the Salcey Forest speed camera on the M1 northbound between junction 14 and 15. This was at around 23:15 on 24th May 2024. This was misleading and many cars were getting flashed by the speed camera because the variable speed limit was unknown. At the next gantry, the National speed limit sign was showing.
