HOUSTON -- The city of Houston's commitment to reducing preventable crashes caused by motorists running red lights will be heightened with more red-light cameras, officials told KPRC Local 2 Tuesday.
Twenty red-light safety cameras are being added to monitor other approaches at intersections where the cameras are already in use.
The cameras will monitor the same intersections from additional directions starting Aug. 31. City officials said they wanted to emphasize that there will be a 30-day public education period during which warning notices will be issued before formal tickets are sent beginning on Oct. 1.
Following are the locations of the new 20 red-light camera approaches:
