Today, red-light cameras go live

- Brooke Baitinger

Those driving in Boynton Beach should be on the lookout for red-light cameras: They’re being reactivate­d today.

The city recently renewed its contract with the company behind many of South Florida’s red-light-camera programs, American Traffic Solutions.

Drivers will be given a two-week warning period to adjust their driving behavior, said police spokeswoma­n Stephanie Slater.

Any drivers who run a red light at one of seven intersecti­ons with cameras between today and Sept. 14 will receive a warning letter and will not be required to pay any fines. Starting Sept. 15, violators will be issued citations and required to pay a $158 fine.

Those ticketed will be red-light runners:

Southbound on Northwest Eighth Street at West Boynton Beach Boulevard.

Eastbound on Boynton Beach Boulevard at North Seacrest Boulevard.

North- or southbound on South Federal Highway at Southeast 23rd Avenue.

East- or westbound on East Gateway Boulevard and north- or southbound on North Congress Avenue.

Eastbound on West Boynton Beach Boulevard/Northwest Second Avenue and northbound on North Congress Avenue.

East- or westbound on West Woolbright Road and north- or southbound on South Congress Avenue.

Eastbound on West Woolbright Road at Southwest Eighth Street/Corporate Drive.

Drivers with questions should call the Boynton Beach Police Department Red-Light Camera Program at 561-742-6820 or email bbpdrlc@bbfl.us.
