Raleigh won’t be renewing its contract to operate red-light cameras at 15 city intersections.
Yesterday the City Council was five votes short of what it needed to extend a contract with ACS Xerox for the Safelight Program. The traffic cams were initially put in because research said that red-light cameras are effective in reducing crashes BUT when officials compared the REAL data from crashes, It showed an increase in wrecks at camera-patrolled intersections…
The city intersections with red-light cameras are:
Dawson Street at Morgan Street
McDowell Street at Morgan Street
Dawson Street at South Street
Hillsborough Street at Dixie Trail
Avent Ferry Road at Varsity Drive
New Bern Avenue at Tarboro Road
Peace Street at West Street
Wilmington Street at Chapanoke Road
Six Forks Road at Dartmouth Street
Six Forks Road at Rowan Street
New Bern Avenue at Interstate 440 eastbound
New Bern Avenue at Interstate 440 westbound
Capital Boulevard at Highwoods Boulevard
Capital Boulevard at New Hope Church Road
New Hope Church Road at Brentwood Road
