Automated traffic enforcement locations announced for April

Mar 29, 2021 | 1:04 PM

Red Deer RCMP Traffic Services has announced its photo radar locations planned for the month of April.

Mobile units are planned to be located in the neighbourhoods of Oriole Park, Johnstone, Kentwood, West Park, Grandview, Mountview, Sunnybrook, South Hill, Deer Park, Rosedale, Eastview, Clearview, Timberlands, Burnt Park Industrial, and Edgar Industrial.

Mobile units will also be located along the traffic corridors of Gaetz Avenue, Taylor Drive, 19 Street, 30 Avenue, 40 Avenue, Ross Street, Riverside Drive, 67 Street, Highway 2A, and Highway 11A.

Intersection Safety Device Cameras can be expected at Gaetz Avenue & 32 Street, Gaetz Avenue & 59 Street, 32 Street and 30 Avenue, as well as Taylor Drive & 32 Street.

The City of Red Deer’s Automated Traffic Enforcement Program includes photo laser, red light cameras and intersection speed cameras. These tools, along with conventional traffic enforcement and education campaigns, aim to help make Red Deer’s roads safer. By reducing speed, both the number and severity of collisions is reduced.

Automated Traffic Enforcement will be operating in areas where speeding has been identified as a community concern; there has been an identifiable, documented history of collisions; a high volume of pedestrians; and areas where conventional enforcement is ineffective or unsafe.

Please note that the RCMP reserve the right to change the site locations without notice.
