Driving around recently I have noticed a lot more small boxes fitted half way up lampposts with a big padlock fitted. Does anyone know what these are for?

If it's in London, I believe they are sensors that 'read' where individual buses are so that the (not necessarily fat) controller knows where they are, and to update the bus stop displays that tell you when the next bus is coming. But I could be wrong.

LOL, I cannot see any wires going into it but I am very tempted to try and have a look inside one

Forgot to say they are around Ascot, Berkshire and we don't have many buses around here as it would appear no real need as the service stops at 17:30

Is that what's known as an Integrated Transport Policy?

There's one in Egham not far from a bus stop...
