The City of Lake Wales is reviewing proposals for a Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 25-09 concerning school speed zone and red light enforcement cameras. This project involves installing advanced video and radar technology systems to detect and record traffic violations. The proposed systems are designed to capture high-definition color video and still images of violating vehicles, with features like infrared illumination for nighttime use and non-invasive installation that does not require cutting into the road surface. The systems are already in production and offer various installation options, including fixed poles, cabinets, or portable trailers. This initiative is currently under review, indicating an early stage in the public process. The project would involve site preparation for camera and pole installation, potential electrical work for power, and the setup of the enforcement systems. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas such as electrical, low-voltage systems, general contracting, and potentially equipment rental or installation services could find opportunities. Engaging early allows businesses to understand the project scope and requirements before final bids and permits are issued.
