Road design, safety and Vision Zero

The Record also published an article about ASE yesterday. There's a throwaway line in it saying "one camera rotates among the 16 school sites" which I took to mean there was some kind of rotating supplemental camera. Looking at the regional council agenda from 2020, the proposal put to council was apparently the "semi-fixed" option provided by the vendor, which means they literally only have a single camera unit rotating between the 16 installations. Obviously if drivers don't know which unit has a camera it still acts as a deterrent, but that means the vast majority of speeders don't receive a ticket, and revenue from this system could be dramatically higher if the initial budget weren't so limited.

That would be similar to the European model, where they have tons of camera locations and far fewer actual cameras. It also means that these are likely standalone cameras without network connections, with the images being picked up when the cameras are moved.
