NEWS RELEASE
TOWN OF BRADFORD WEST GWILLIMBURY
*************************
The 90-day advanced notification period for the second rotation of automated speed enforcement (ASE) cameras is in effect, beginning June 1, 2024.
‘Coming Soon’ signs have been installed at four new ASE locations within community safety zones throughout BWG.
The first rotation of ASE cameras was installed and activated on May 1, 2024. These cameras will be removed, installed at the four new locations, and activated as of Sept. 1, 2024 (following the mandatory 90-day advanced notification period).
The second rotation of ASE cameras will be installed at the following locations:
- West Park Avenue, north of Brian Collier Way
- Fletcher Street, between Church Street and Barrie Street
- Miller Park Avenue, between Angela Street and West Park Avenue
- Simcoe Road, north of Gibson Circle
After four months of operation, the cameras at the second rotation will be removed and reinstalled at four new community safety zone locations, to begin the third and final rotation of the pilot project.
ASE is an automated system that uses a camera and a speed measurement device to detect and capture images of vehicles travelling more than the posted speed limit. The town has partnered with Global Traffic Group Ltd. for the duration of the pilot project, to provide technology, processing solutions, and ASE expertise to BWG.
Council endorsed the ASE pilot project in October 2023, which includes a total of three rotations. Each rotation begins with a mandatory 90-day notification period via advanced warning signs at each respective ASE location. The notification period is followed by an operational/in-use period of four months during which time the cameras are active, and tickets will be issued to vehicle owners caught speeding in the posted areas.
