Photo Radar locations: May 1-31

Apr 27, 2022 | 2:22 PM

The City of Red Deer has announced its photo radar locations planned for the month of May.

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, however, that RCMP reserve the right to change site locations without notice.

Mobile units will be operating in the neighbourhoods of Glendale, Normandeau, Highland Green, Riverside Meadows, Fairview, Pines, the Downtown Core, Waskasoo, Woodlea, Parkvale, Bower, Anders, Morrisroe, Inglewood, Vanier, and Lancaster.

Mobile units will also be operating 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.

Meantime, Intersection Safety Device Cameras will be located at Gaetz Avenue & 59 Street, Gaetz Avenue & 76 Street, and Ross Street & 30 Avenue.

The City’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, are said to help make Red Deer’s roads safer. By reducing speed, both the number and severity of collisions is expected to be reduced.
