For Customer Service Assistance please call 800-603-4998.
According to the Federal Highway Administration more than 2.7 million intersection crashes occur across the country annually, resulting in over 9,000 fatalities each year. Each year more than 50% of all reported crashes and 22% of all injury crashes occur in an intersection.
Effective traffic management remains a high priority for our citizens, the business community and city officials.
The Rowlett Police Department has always made red light enforcement a major priority in traffic enforcement. Significant resources have been dedicated towards this problem, yet we still see senseless collisions and injuries being caused by red light runners. As a part of Rowlett’s continuing traffic safety enforcement efforts, the City is implementing Rowlett Stop On Red, an automated red light enforcement program..
The use of cameras to capture red light violations comes as part of the City’s increasing efforts to make the streets safer for everyone. Cameras will be located at three intersections:
Rowlett Road and Hickox Road
Rowlett Road and Beech Street
Rowlett Road and Chaha Road
All the locations have been selected based on the following criteria; crashes, current and future construction plans, and the extent of red light running.
Notice of violations will be issued to violators by mail. The violation will carry a $75 civil penalty and will not appear on a person’s driving record.
Individuals wishing to pay the violation on line may follow this link.
