ROCKLIN – The city will install a second camera Friday to snap photos of red-light runners in the city.
The camera has been installed at the intersection of westbound Rocklin Road and the on- and offramps from westbound Interstate 80.
Police Sgt. Terry Roide said motorists will be given a 30-day warning period at the new location. Enforcement is set for July 7, he said.
Citations will be sent to the alleged violators, who can either pay the fine listed on the ticket or challenge the citation in court.
Roide said in a news release that the cameras are steps to improve the safety and flow of local traffic.
The city's other camera, at Sunset Boulevard and Park Avenue, was installed in 2006.
Rocklin's photo enforcement program is administered by Redflex Traffic Systems Inc., an Arizona company. Rocklin pays Redflex $6,000 a month per camera in a lease agreement to administer the system.
