Newark officials have deployed their inaugural automated speed enforcement camera on Hillside Road, working alongside vendor Elovate to implement the new traffic safety measure.
The camera deployment comes following approval of legislation at both the state and municipal levels that permits automated speed monitoring systems. This legislative action was prompted by persistent community complaints regarding excessive speeding in the area.
The new speed camera represents Newark’s first step into automated traffic enforcement technology as city leaders work to address ongoing traffic safety concerns raised by local residents.
