Do you want red light cameras in the city?
The city wants your feedback as they consider whether to install the cameras.
Thunder Bay Police support installing red light cameras in the city to improve safety and prevent serious collisions.
City officials also believe they could make our roads safer.
“In Ontario, many serious traffic accidents involve right-angle collisions, where a vehicle running a red light hits the side of a vehicle that has entered the intersection properly on a green light—a ‘t-bone’ accident,” said David Binch, Traffic Technologist, Infrastructure and Operations. “Cities that have installed red light cameras have experienced a 25 per cent reduction in these accidents, which usually cause injury.”
Officials are asking you to take their online survey, which is open until April 16th.
