Guelph, Ont., July 25, 2023 – On August 1, 2023, four automated speed enforcement cameras will rotate around 16 different locations across Guelph every three months.
Safe streets save lives
The top causes for collisions in Guelph include drivers travelling at high speeds and running red lights. Lower speeds are proven to reduce the seriousness of injuries from a collision and we are implementing automated speed enforcement as one of several Vision Zero measures to combat speeding and aggressive driving, especially in Guelph’s school zones that require increased road safety measures.
The first four locations are:
- Westwood Road, in front of Westwood Road Public School
- Colonial Drive, in front of St. Ignatius of Loyola Catholic School
- Metcalfe Street, in front of King George Public School
- Ironwood Drive, in front of Fred A. Hamilton Public School
Signs will let drivers know the cameras are active and tickets will be issued for violations starting August 1.
We first notified the community on May 1 with a news release, and with signs in each location indicating automated speed enforcement was coming August 1.
