I can confirm that the information requested is held by Lincolnshire County Council. I have detailed below the information that is being released to you.

The survey covers 24 hours a day over a seven day period and uses a covert Radar device to monitor the flow of all traffic, in both directions and records the speeds. It is unlikely drivers would notice or be aware of the device
