ANPR cameras in London: FAQs

Where are the ANPR cameras in London?

Everywhere traffic flows: the congestion charge zone boundary, ULEZ enforcement points, major junctions, and police-operated sites across the boroughs. The map on this page shows the cameras volunteers have documented so far — a growing sample of a network numbering in the thousands.

Are ULEZ cameras ANPR cameras?

Yes. ULEZ and congestion charge enforcement both work by reading number plates with ANPR cameras and checking them against vehicle databases. Transport for London operates thousands of them across Greater London.

How many ANPR cameras does London have?

Several thousand between Transport for London's charging zones and the Metropolitan Police's network — exact figures are not published. Community mapping of London cameras is early: under a hundred have been individually documented on OpenStreetMap, so expect this map to fill in over time.
