3 new red-light cameras now operating
A 30-day warning period begins today for new red-light cameras at three intersections in the downtown Spokane area.
Beginning at 8 a.m., drivers caught on camera running a red light will earn a warning notice for the vehicle owner. No fine is attached, but red-light runners will begin receiving $124 citations on July 31.
The new cameras are at westbound Second Avenue at Walnut Street, southbound Maple Street at Second and southbound Third Avenue at Browne Street.
Spokanealready has seven intersections equipped with cameras that have captured more than 23,000 violations since Oct. 1, 2008:
Browne Street southbound at Sprague Avenue, Hamilton Street northbound at Mission Avenue, Division Street north and southbound at Francis Avenue, Wellesley Avenue eastbound at Ash Street, Freya Street northbound at Third Avenue, Thor Street and Second Avenue both westbound and southbound, and Division Street northbound at Sprague Avenue.
The warning period for those intersections ended long ago.
