Construction on the freeway deactivated most of the cameras as well as a plan to install cameras statewide were cited as the reasons for ending the photo enforcement, according to the Scottsdale City Manager.
Mesa, Arizona - Scottsdale's one-year agreement with the Department of Public Safety for photo enforcement on the Loop 101 has ended.
A letter sent Thursday by acting Scottsdale City Manager John Little cited construction on the freeway having deactivated most of the cameras as well as a plan to install cameras statewide for ending the photo enforcement.
Scottsdale officials say all citations issued through June will be processed in Scottsdale City Court.
Scottsdale started a nine-month pilot program along an eight-mile stretch of Loop 101 in January 2006.
The program was the first to install fixed-speed cameras on a freeway.
It returned in February 2007 and has operated continuously since that time.
DPS has administered the program since July 2007 while Scottsdale has processed the citations.
A DPS spokesman says it has not been decided whether photo enforcement cameras will return to Loop 101.
This change comes a little late for rapper DMX, sorry big guy!
