If Glassboro is selected under the new pilot program run by the state, a total of 21 cameras will be installed at six major intersections to record red light violations including illegal right turns and running a red light. The resolution also indicates that if selected as a pilot program, American Traffic Solutions will run the red-light photo-enforcement program for the Borough.
"Studies and community testimonials prove that these cameras successfully reduce the crashes and injuries caused by red-light runners," said Glassboro Chief of Police Alex J. Fanfarillo. "If ATS can help us save just one life or prevent a serious injury, this program will be a success."
"ATS is excited to partner with Glassboro to build a program that will improve public safety by increasing the awareness of traffic safety in a way that decreases red-light running, related crashes, injuries and fatalities," said James Tuton, ATS president and CEO. "We are confident that the Glassboro program can serve as an exemplary model of improved public safety for communities throughout the Garden State."
