PI: Alyssa Ryan, Ph.D.

Sponsor: City of Phoenix

The goal of this project is for the University of Arizona (UA) project team to provide recommendations and next steps for the City of Phoenix in regard to red light running cameras and their ability to increase safety at intersections. These recommendations are critical to increase the safety within the metro Phoenix region, understand the success in other regions with similar Vision Zero goals, and target specific locations and reasons why red light running cameras may or may not be successful at decreasing crashes in the City of Phoenix. The results of this project will specifically outline the steps that the City of Phoenix could take to increase safety at intersections with cameras and the overall success of automated enforcement activities within the region.
