Cedar Rapids Installing First Red-Light Cameras Today

Tools

By KCRG Intern

CEDAR RAPIDS -- If all goes well, the first red-light cameras in Cedar Rapids will be in place today.

The first two cameras are going up on 10th Street SE at the intersection with First Avenue East, and at the intersection of 10th Street and Second Avenue SE.

Once in place, police say the cameras should be operational within a few days, but there will be a 30-day warning period so the public can get used to how they work.

The cameras are designed to catch red-light runners and those who are speeding through intersections.
