Overview
- The Village of Gurnee officially ended its red-light photo enforcement on July 5 when its contract with Redflex/Verra Mobility expired.
- No new violations have been issued since the program ended, though fines for tickets issued on or before July 5 remain payable.
- Village officials cited inconsistent vendor support, maintenance delays and frequent shutdowns during construction as reasons for not renewing the program.
- All camera equipment is scheduled for removal by early fall as the Gurnee Police Department explores alternative tools and strategies to uphold road safety.
- Between 2009 and 2014 the program helped lower annual crashes by 32% and fostered a lasting community-wide halo effect despite recent operational challenges.
