If they have increased the spacing, you might want to check that it is
still no more than 183 metres. If the spacing is greater than that, it
makes a 30mph speed limit unenforceable, unless they fit repeater signs
along the road.

Usually, they are staggered on opposite sides of the road. Is the 183m
measured diagonally across the road in that case?

Provided both sides properly light the road (some convictions have been
overturned by showing they do not) the measurement would be along the
road centre line.
