E. Each speed and red light detection system must utilize infrared systems rather than distracting

Commission Committee Meeting · 2026-05-19 · agenda_item

This item concerns a review of speed and red light detection systems for Santa Rosa County. The county is considering systems that use infrared illumination instead of flashing lights. These systems are designed to capture violations clearly in all conditions without distracting drivers. The proposed systems include infrared illuminators integrated with 4K color video cameras. This review is currently under consideration by the Commission Committee. The project would involve the installation of these detection systems, potentially including site preparation, camera mounting, and electrical connections. Contractors specializing in traffic control systems, electrical work, and potentially site preparation could find opportunities. Engaging early in the review process may provide an advantage before specific system selections and installation plans are finalized.
