Although installations begin this fall, the red light camera programs will not be operational until March 2022.
The fine for running a red light is $ 325 under the Ontario Highway Traffic Act. Running a red light at these specific locations will result in a ticket being issued to the registered owner of the vehicle.
According to the city, tickets will only be issued when a vehicle fully enters an intersection marked with a red light. Drivers who cross the stop bar with a green or amber light, drivers who make a permitted turn with a red light, or drivers who stop at or just above the stop bar will not be fined.
