Origin

(December 6, 2013) Report from the General Manager, Transportation Services, and the Director, Purchasing and Materials Management

Summary

Red light cameras were introduced at the City of Toronto in 2000 as a two-year pilot project, and have since been implemented in two phases at 115 locations.  Both phases of camera installations have successfully met the objective of reducing collisions and injuries attributed to red light running.

 

This purpose of this report is to request City Council's approval to issue a Request for Proposals, in conjunction with the partnering municipalities (Ottawa, Hamilton, Peel, Halton, Waterloo and York), for the supply, installation, operation and maintenance of red-light camera sites effective January 1, 2017.  City Council is also requested to authorize a publishing schedule for red light running violation data.
