It is a green light for red light program

It is a green light for one city program that catches drivers who run red lights. The city’s camera program will continue for another three years.

Taxpayers in Wilmington and New Hanover County will help pay for new equipment to clearly identify red light runners’ license plates.

The city said it is an investment that will hopefully reduce car accidents.

Red light violators will be receiving a fifty dollar ticket in the mail if caught on camera.

City council is expected to vote on this issue Tuesday night.
