Redflex executes two photo enforcement contracts
South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia - Redflex Traffic Systems Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary of Redflex Holdings Limited, is pleased to announce the execution of two new photo enforcement contracts with the Illinois cities of Geneva and Carol Stream.
Geneva, IL.
Located in Kane County, this Chicago suburb has an approximate population of 24,000. The initial scope of the program includes photo enforcement at up to 24 designated locations with a term of five years, plus two 2-year automatic renewals.
Carol Stream, IL
Located in DuPage County, the city has a population in excess of 40,000. The scope of the program includes up to 20 red-light enforcement locations, with a term of five years, plus two 2-year automatic renewals.
“In executing these new contracts, we have built an Illinois portfolio including in excess of 20 municipalities in a short period of time. This is an amazing accomplishment considering that as of late 2006 only the City of Chicago was permitted to implement a red-light camera program. This rapid expansion is predicated on our proven abilities to successfully (1) support broader enabling state legislation, (2) develop and execute a focused regional strategy, and (3) with Chicago as our flagship program, maintain the largest and most prominent program in both the State of Illinois and the USA” said Karen Finley, CEO RTSI.
Redflex Traffic Systems Inc has contracts with more than 180 US cities, and is the largest provider of digital red light and speed enforcement services in North America. With photo speed programs in 9 states and photo red light programs across 20 states, Redflex has consistently led the market in contract wins, system installation rates and market share.
