Los Angeles to launch California's largest speed safety camera network

The project targets crash-prone corridors where speed has historically been a primary factor in fatalities. By the end of 2026, these 125 sites will utilize automated technology to monitor traffic flow and deter excessive speeding. The initiative is part of a broader six-city pilot program designed to shift driver behavior and improve safety through data-driven enforcement.

Verra Mobility, which already operates similar systems in San Francisco and Oakland, will oversee the design and maintenance of the equipment. Local firm Morgner Construction Management is expected to handle the physical installation. City officials point to the success of regional predecessors—where speeding dropped by as much as 80% in some areas—as a benchmark for the Los Angeles rollout. The program will also integrate public education and privacy protections as mandated by state law.
