Texas Camera locations

 

I have had a few comments about some of the newer locations that I have added to the database.

When I started to find proposed locations that had not actually been installed yet, Jon and I sat down and discussed it and decided that it is better for people to know about these locations ahead of time. Then if it turns out that they do not get installed, we can remove them from the database.

I think that if there were cameras going up in the future in my area I would want to know about it way before hand so I knew where they were.

We are not trying to give incorrect information, we just want to be on top of what is going to happen.

I am hoping that the people in those cities will let the us know when those cameras are installed so that we can verify the locations. Just make sure that you use the report a red light camera page so that the locations don’t get lost in the forums.

Thanks for the heads up everyone, I really do appreciate it

It was just the paper

It was just the paper yesterday that Dallas is adding 100 more red light cameras. Recently one was put on Lovers Lane. This has proven to be a real cash cow for Dallas and the 'Burbs.

Dallas area

Sorry, I am late on this post. There is a town in the Dallas area that installed 5 red light cams and reported first year earnings of $3.8M. This was in a local newspaper.

Dallas Red Light Cameras

Hi,

I put together a file with 60 Dallas Red Light cameras I took from the data from a list published by the city of Dallas. Probably you have something better, but let me know in case you don't so I can share my file with you.

I also put together other files for red lights in the places I ride most frequently, Plano, Garland, Irving, Denton, etc.

Let me know whether these would be useful.

Welcome

Felixcatus,
Welcome to the group, it is always nice to get another volunteer for one of the larger areas. I will send you an email and we can start working together to make sure that we have all those Dallas locations;)

Welcome to the Texas team;)
You do know that we also have a Metro area for Dallas if you are interested in adding your favorite local attractions and restaurants. http://www.poi-factory.com/node/4864

Just let me know.

I dont really support

I dont really support cameras because it is just too cold!!!

College Station, TX Cameras

So far, to the best of my knowledge, College Station has not yet put up any of the cameras. I'll be more than happy to report their locations when they go up for comparison to the locations currently listed for the city. At least one current PoI for CS is an intersection near me that isn't listed as a proposed camera, but that information might have changed and escaped my notice. We do have intersection cameras for controlling the lights which did cause some confusion early on.

I hope this will be helpful.

Hmmm, are you in Texas? "Cold" and "Texas" usually don't happen in the same sentence.

They are coming....

I think that they are adding 40 more, which will give them 100.

They were going to put them

They were going to put them up earlier this year in College Station but the changes in the law made them decide to delay until next year.

Thanks for the list. Once they are up we will need to look at the ones on the list that don't really exist. If the cameras are successful, to the city gov't at least, I'm sure we will get more.
edit: Which of course, the link posted made clear but I didn't read first.

Up and running

The cameras at the listed locations are up and running now - although we are still in a state of grace until the 18th.

I need to figure out how to take out the false locations that are currently in the file so I don't get duped by false warnings.

Okay, I figured out how to delete the one incorrect location on my downloaded file. Just in time as today is the start of the actually ticketing.

If you find an incorrect location, please send it to Miss POI for inclusion in the master file so that everyone has the most accurate information.
Thanks. smile

I have done some editing to this thread, please do not post red light camera intersection names or links to that information on the forums. Send the information to the link labeled "report an enforcement camera".

Miss POI

Will do.

Will do. I thought I had them sorted out but not quite yet.
