Today, red-light cameras go live
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.
