Municipality of Brighton to Transition Away from Automated Speed Enforcement Program
The Municipality of Brighton remains committed to enhancing public safety and protecting persons using its municipal roadways. In response to the Province of Ontario’s Bill 56 legislation, Brighton will phase out its Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) program by November 14.
At this time, the ASE camera on Elizabeth Street will remain active. Motorists are reminded that speeding infractions that are captured prior to November 14, including outstanding infractions, will remain valid. Speeding penalty orders will continue to be mailed to the registered vehicle owners.
As directed by the Ministry of Transportation, speed limit signage will be installed in the area of the schools and King Edward Park to ensure drivers are reminded of the speed limit. The Municipality continues to actively explore alternative traffic calming measures to ensure Community Safety Zones and School Zones remain safe for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers.
