14 Calgary neighbourhoods that will have photo radar this August
In an effort to reduce road collisions in Calgary, photo radar will be set up in 14 communities around the city this August.
For the month of August, mobile photo radar will be in place at construction zones where workers are present. Photo radar will be set up in the following 14 areas:
- Acadia
- Applewood Park
- Bowness
- Citadel
- East Village
- Fairview
- Huntington Hills
- Kingsland
- Palliser
- Pineridge
- Renfrew
- Strathcona
- Temple
- West Hillhurst
In addition to photo radar, there are 52 Intersection Safety Camera (ISC) locations throughout Calgary. These cameras can photograph vehicles that run through red lights.
Those who drive 50 km/h over the speed limit will have to appear in court before a judge.
Community needs were identified through statistical analysis, collisions, and citizen concerns, and photo radar will continue to cultivate a safer driving environment around the city.
If a motorist is ticketed, the Offence Notice/Violation Ticket will be mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle. Tickets can be paid at Provincial Court or online, following the directions on the violation ticket portion of the document. The ticket needs to be dealt with on or before the appearance date on the violation ticket.
