Impact analysis
The city will pay upfront for cameras and software, but the payoff is fewer wasted minutes, less fuel burned, and smoother traffic flow.
Drivers, commuters, delivery trucks, and emergency vehicles should benefit from shorter waits at crossings.
Privacy advocates could object to expanded camera surveillance, though the stated traffic goal does not target any specific group.
