Abstract

The literature has produced mixed results on the effectiveness of red light cameras on crashes. Thus ARRB Transport Research was commissioned by Austroads to develop 'Guidelines for Setting-up and Operation of Signalised Intersections with Red Light Cameras'. A review of literature from Australia and overseas to summarise current knowledge on the safety impact of red light cameras at traffic signals was undertaken. This was followed by an examination of the red light camera programs throughout Australasia and a comparison of the pattern of crash types at red light camera sites with those for a group of non-camera sites in three jurisdictions. Guidelines for the setting-up and operation of red light cameras were developed from this work. The aim of the Guidelines is for future and existing red light camera programs to operate at a high level of effectiveness in terms of crash reductions and to decrease red light running and crashes resulting from this behaviour.
