Traffic camera system completion expected by May
The traffic camera system is expected to be completed in May with the installation of 90 fixed cameras. Pending issues include approval needed for specific points, such as one at the intersection in Polemidia where a fatal accident occurred. Changes are being made to improve visibility at intersections and increase the time to pay penalty notices. Plans are also in place to send penalty notices directly to drivers at airports, ports, and roadblocks. A bill is being considered to allow for SMS or email notifications of penalty notices. Awareness campaigns are being conducted to educate the public on intersection safety. Plans to increase penalty points for losing a driving license are pending, but a program for erasing points through road awareness courses is being promoted. Legislative changes are being made to address issues with non-delivery of penalty notices and unidentified violators.
