Work is underway to install 20 new photo radar cameras across the City of Ottawa, as the city continues to expand the automated speed enforcement program.
Ottawa currently has 40 photo radar cameras installed in school zones, community safety zones and at "high speed locations" on Hunt Club Road, Walkley Road, Riverside Drive and Bronson Avenue. The photo radar cameras have issued a total of 154,341 tickets in the first five months of the year.
A construction notice on the City of Ottawa's website says in July, the city will be "commencing construction to support the installation of automated speed enforcement cameras" across the city.
Contractors will be removing asphalt, sidewalk and landscaping to install buried electrical wires and the photo radar equipment and camera unit. The city says a Hydro One/Hydro Ottawa approved contractor will be completing work to connect to the transformer as required.
The city says construction will begin in July and be completed by mid-October.
The City of Ottawa's construction page only provides notice for work on 17 photo radar cameras.
