Speed enforcement cameras

Speed enforcement cameras at five high-risk intersections went live Oct. 1 as part of the city’s Vision Zero initiative to eliminate traffic deaths and severe injuries on Minneapolis streets. This milestone marks the completion of a years-long, strategic look at opportunities to improve traffic safety marked by deep collaboration between multiple departments within the city of Minneapolis, city council, and state lawmakers. Each location has signage notifying drivers that there is camera enforcement. Only streets under the city’s jurisdiction were considered for the launch of the pilot. Public works anticipates adding more speed cameras and adding red light cameras early next year.
