The Metropolitan Police Department announced today the deployment of new automated speed enforcement locations beginning on or after August 1, 2012.
The deployment locations for the Photo Enforcement Units will continue to be at sites with the highest number of crashes and injuries, calls for police service, and high speed volume. MPD also considered recommendations or requests from the Department of Transportation, Advisory Neighborhood Commissions and civic or citizen associations.
The 30-day educational phase will commence on August 1, 2012, when violators will begin receiving warning citations. On Monday September 3, 2012, MPD will begin issuing live moving citations to violators. The new photo enforcement locations are as follows:
