KWINANA SMART FREEWAY —
SAFETY CAMERAS
863. Hon PETER COLLIER to the minister representing the
Minister for Transport:
I have my two questions and another
four today.
I refer to WA tender MRWA015519 for
the installation of safety cameras on the smart freeway.
(1) When is it expected that the
cameras will be installed?
(2) What is the expected cost of the
contract?
(3) Will they remain in place on the
smart freeway after the 12-month trial?
(4) Will they
specifically be used to issue fines to motorists not complying with the speed
and lane conditions after the trial is finished?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the Leader of the Opposition
for some notice of the question.
(1) The cameras will be installed
late 2020–early 2021.
(2) It is $1 million.
(3)–(4) A
review of the trial data will determine whether the cameras remain in place
after the 12 months and their application.
