Tomball okays red light cameras
Not wanting to be left out of the revenue-generating bonanza known as red light cameras, Tomball has approved a five-year contract with Redflex:
City Council also approved a five-year renewable contract with Scottdale, Ariz.-based Redflex Traffic Systems Inc. to install and operate a photographic traffic signal enforcement system at a minimum of four intersections — and up to 20 intersections — to record photographs and video of vehicles that run red lights.
Redflex will conduct an engineering survey to determine the intersections that warrant red-light cameras. Police Capt. Rickey Doerre said the Texas 249/FM 2920 and Texas 249/Zion Road intersections will probably rank among the top four to six that will be selected for the program.
