Sunset Park group wants traffic cams to deter speeding
A new campaign by public transit advocacy group TransportationAlternatives (T.A.) would place hundreds of speed cameras intraffic lights throughout the city, and some members of CommunityBoard 7 want Sunset Park to be among the first neighborhoods to getone or two of them.
CB7 Chairperson Fred Xuereb brought up the issue at last monthsPublic Safety Committee meeting, suggesting that the board getinput from the 72nd Precinct to write a request letterfor the cameras. The committee and later the full board votedto approve the suggestion.
