Third Calgary intersection to see return of photo radar
Another Calgary intersection will see the return of automated traffic enforcement after approval from the provincial government.
calgary.citynews.caI don’t have live access to current tool results in this turn, but I can summarize the latest publicly reported developments on Calgary traffic cameras up to recent months and point you to where you can verify in real time.
Direct answer:
- Calgary has been advancing automated traffic enforcement at select intersections, with approvals in 2024–2025 to bring red-light and speed cameras back at certain locations after provincial rules changes. Several intersections were identified for camera installations or reinstatement, including the 16 Avenue at 68 Street NE and Highway 1A at Twelve Mile Coulee Road NW, with cameras expected to operate at specific times and for targeted violations. These changes reflect ongoing efforts to improve traffic safety in Calgary, though recent policy shifts from the province have restricted camera use on provincial highways and connectors while allowing exemptions for municipal intersections with safety concerns. For the most current status and exact locations, consult The City of Calgary Roads and Traffic page and Calgary Police Service updates.
Where to check for the latest:
- The City of Calgary — Traffic cameras page and traffic conditions: provides live camera feeds, current incidents, and road closures.
- Calgary Police Service automated traffic enforcement updates: press releases or news briefings on which intersections have cameras, operating status, and any changes in enforcement rules.
- Local news outlets’ Calgary traffic sections (Global News Calgary, CityNews Calgary) for the latest on new camera deployments or policy updates.
- The province’s transportation ministry announcements, which can affect whether cameras are permitted at certain types of roads (highways vs. local streets) and the scope of enforcement.
Illustrative example:
- If you’re driving in northeast Calgary and want to know whether the 16 Avenue at 68 Street NE has active red-light/speed cameras, the live camera feed page and the latest CPS updates will confirm current operation status and any recent changes.
