I have only just noticed that it is 20mph across Tower Bridge so are
they some sort of speed camera. What are the cameras on a gantry on the
northern approach for, they look congestion charging cameras, certainly
not speed cameras.

I am not sure that the ones on the gantry are speed cameras as they are
right at the start of the Tower Brideg Road. To catch a speeding
motorist they would need to be placed nearer the middle.
They look like Traffic Master type cameras but there are at least three
of them.
I suupose they could be some sort of surveillance or looking for dodgey
number plates or out of date tax discs.
