Red-light Camera Program Suspension
Summary
Belmont is pausing its red-light camera program, so automated tickets at those intersections may stop for now. That means drivers won’t face camera-issued fines during the pause, but the city also won’t collect that revenue. The big question is whether safety at those intersections changes while the program is on hold.
