BRAMPTON, ON – The City of Brampton has significantly ramped up its efforts to curb speeding, announcing the installation of 50 new pole-mounted Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) cameras, bringing the city’s total active photo radar units to 150. This expansion is part of a larger plan to increase the number of cameras to 185 by the end of July.
Brampton first introduced ASE cameras in community safety zones in 2020, initially deploying 50 ground-mounted units that were rotated across different areas. Recognizing issues with vandalism on the older units, the city began phasing out ground-mounted cameras in 2024 in favour of more robust pole-mounted systems, with a target of 200 new installations. The latest 50 cameras are now active and are strategically placed to enhance road safety, particularly near schools, parks, and in residential neighborhoods.
Understanding the Fine Structure:
While the exact speed threshold for issuing tickets remains undisclosed, the City of Brampton outlines its fine structure for speeding in Community Safety Zones as follows:
- 1 to 19 km/h over the limit: $5 per kilometre over, plus additional costs.
- 20 to 29 km/h over the limit: $7.50 per kilometre over, plus additional costs.
- 30 to 49 km/h over the limit: $12 per kilometre over, plus additional costs.
It’s important to note that ASE tickets result in a monetary fine for the registered plate holder and do not incur demerit points.
