The Automated Speed Enforcement cameras are up and running in four locations, ready to capture drivers with heavy feet.
Mayor James Leduc said the pilot project will aid in solving a longtime problem in Community Safety Zones.
"Serving on council for over two decades, I've heard many concerns from our residents regarding community and traffic safety. Speeding continues to be the primary issue among our residents," Leduc stated in a release.
