Toronto is moving 50 speed cameras to help reduce speed in dangerous areas of the city.
This will be the fifth round of relocations since Automated Speed Controls (ASEs) were introduced in July 2020.
All ASE locations are selected primarily based on data that shows where speed and collision challenges exist.
Each compartment has two ASE devices that capture and record images of speeding vehicles.
“Reducing speeding and reckless driving continues to be a top priority for the city’s road safety, and we know that automated speeding is a key, data-based tool that is effective in changing driver behavior and protecting our drivers. vulnerable road users. “We know that when these speed cameras go up, drivers slow down,” Mayor John Torrey said in a statement Friday.
The city says it has put up warning signs in all new locations to warn drivers in advance, according to provincial requirements.
From January to March, the city said more than 74,600 tickets were issued by the 50 devices.
A total of 21,681 tickets were issued in January, with the ASE device on Beverley Street north of D’Arcy Street distributing the most tickets – 2,772. There were 1,632 recidivists in January.
Cameras issued 25,666 tickets in February, with the same device on Beverley Street again issuing the most tickets, accounting for 19 percent of all tickets. In February, there were 1,788 recidivists.
A total of 27,290 tickets were issued in March, with 10 percent of all tickets coming from the Avenue Road building south of Caribou Road. March had 1963 recidivists.
Since the start of the program, the highest overspeed detected has been 146 km / h in the 50 km / h speed limit area of Martin Grove Road north of Garfel Drive.
