www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com Speeders on Arcado Road in Lilburn have less than 30 days to slow down or get ticketed.
On Thursday, Jan. 23, the Lilburn Police Department began a 30-day warning period to help drivers adjust to a new program set around the school zone of Arcado Elementary School.
The program is known as Automated Enforcement of School Zones. It was instituted after a nationwide spike in pedestrian fatalities over the past decade in which Georgia became one of the deadliest states for pedestrians.
In July 2019, the Lilburn City Council approved an agreement with RedSpeed USA to install school zone cameras. This came after House Bill 978 passed in 2018, which allowed for automated enforcement in school zones.
“Once the HB was passed into law we decided to conduct our own speed studies at all seven schools inside our city,” Lilburn Police Chief Bruce Hedley said. “All studies showed we had a speeding problem, but we decided on Arcado and Trickum because of the high volume of pedestrian traffic, especially during drop off and pick up times. Safety is a priority and the goal is that the program will encourage drivers to slow down and obey the speed limit.”
During the 30-day period, drivers will be mailed warning notices. The program will target the speeders that exceed more than 15 mph over the speed limit in school zones. Hedley said the idea is to target the super speeders, though the law allows motorists traveling 11 mph or over to be cited.
