Here is where the city’s 25 new speed cameras are located

by Streets of Toronto staff for Post City Posted: February 2, 2023
The latest batch of speed cameras are up and running deployed to Community Safety Zones across the city. The cameras are added to 50 existing speed cameras, to bring the total number to 75, which the city says are “aimed at dissuading speeding and further strengthening road safety across Toronto as part of the City’s Vision Zero Road Safety Plan.”
“We now have 75 speed cameras across the city and I remain fully committed to installing a total of 150 cameras this term,” said Mayor John Tory, in a statement. “Expanding the Automated Speed Enforcement program is a major step forward in making our neighbourhoods safer for everyone in Toronto and an effort that demonstrates our continued commitment to advancing Toronto’s Vision Zero Road Safety Plan.”

The 25 new ASE devices, an additional device per ward, are in the following locations:

  1. Thistle Down Boulevard east of Albion Road (Etobicoke North)
  2. Martin Grove Road south of Eglinton Avenue West (Etobicoke Centre)
  3. Mimico Avenue west of Station Road (Etobicoke-Lakeshore)

In November 2022, the City put up warning signs at every location to make sure motorists understood what was coming and that charges would be laid against speeders.

At the city’s current locations, the cameras issued 21,362 tickets in December, 2022 alone. Parkside Drive south of Algonquin Avenue was the worst stretch of roadway with 1,841 speeding tickets sent out.

Tory confirmed that Vision Zero will receive $72.8 million in funding within this year’s budget – the largest amount spent in one year on the plan since it was launched.

“The existence of speed cameras on our roadways is a reminder that each and every single person driving needs to slow down and obey the posted speed limit, especially near schools in Community Safety Zones – the places where kids and people of all ages tend to walk, run, bike and play,” said Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie.
