Assuming that referred to raising bollards rather than being a
euphemism, those are done by registration number too, not car
colour.

Nope. In Cambridge it's by transponder.

More "was" than "is" now. The only transponder-operated gates left
only work for buses.

The rest are ANPR?

ANPR is now the preferred method of enforcement.

And is deployed at any bollards in Cambridge?

The bollards have either gone completely or been disabled. The layouts have
changed, with many of the cycle bypass lanes removed. If you cycled in
Cambridge you would have noticed a year or more ago.

The bollards near Brooklands Avenue are quite new so they seem to be
keeping them for now.

As buses/transponders only?

Yes.

It's why the signage was changed to make the gates into bus lanes, in
case you'd missed that.

Which gates?

The bollards were located at bus gates. Do keep up.
