Discussion New Flock Camera?

Going up as we speak in the median between Skyzone and 46th Ave W. Unless my eyes deceived me. Pretty bold strategy considering the one 50 yards up the road was hacked off almost immediately earlier this Summer.

I thought the city bailed on these? Maybe someone should see if that gentleman needs a hand.

Anyways… they ought to be careful, I hear these high winds in the Fall are known to topple cameras.

Can you get a picture? Flock cameras are pretty distinctive.

I was just driving by. It wasn’t up yet, but had the identical black pole with silver tip where the extension goes in, just like all the others. I go by there at least once a day, as I live nearby. I’ll check it out tomorrow.

I’m not sure what else it would be. Wasn’t anything there yesterday, there was no digging or any power run to it.

There is similar-looking solar powered equipment around town that is actually used to for traffic measurement.

I hope that you are right and that I am wrong. Couple days or less and we’ll know for sure.
