South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia – Redflex Traffic Systems Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary of Redflex Holdings Limited, is pleased to announce the execution of a contract for mobile speed enforcement with the Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS).

This contract was awarded to Redflex as a result of a competitive tender and this is the first stage of a statewide speed-enforcement program that was authorized by Governor Janet Napolitano earlier this year.

This initial pilot, which has a maximum contract term of 2 years, comprises two mobile speed units and is being implemented to test the viability of photo enforcement on State Highways and Roadways in anticipation of DPS developing a more comprehensive statewide photo program.

“This is a great opportunity for Redflex to participate in yet another landmark event in our industry. The outcome of this pilot is of significant consequence, as the State is using our technology to test the overall viability of photo enforcement of State Highways. Being selected to support the State in such a visible and important initiative is a true honour. In Arizona, it is our understanding that this is the first State-level contract to be executed directly with a photo enforcement company, and we hope that it sets a successful precedent for others to follow” said Karen Finley, CEO.

Redflex Traffic Systems Inc has contracts with more than 150 US jurisdictions, and is the largest provider of digital red light and speed enforcement services in North America. With photo speed programs in 9 states and photo red light programs across 19 states, Redflex leads the market in installed systems, installation rate and market share.
