125 speed camera locations expected to be operational by the end of 2026
MESA, Ariz., June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Verra Mobility Corporation (NASDAQ: VRRM), a leading provider of smart mobility technology solutions, announced today that the Los Angeles City Council formally awarded the company to design, build, operate, and maintain a speed safety program across the city and county of Los Angeles.
Verra Mobility and the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) will commence implementation of speed safety systems at 125 sites along high-injury and crash corridors across the city. Many of these sites will use multiple approaches to reduce speeding in both directions. The locations were carefully selected using data on high-speed driving and speed-related crashes throughout the city.
Los Angeles is part of a six-city pilot program, under Assembly Bill 645, that allows speed safety programs aimed at reducing excessive speeding, saving lives, and improving street safety by changing driver behavior.
“We’re proud to partner with the City of Los Angeles to implement the largest speed safety program in the state,” said Will Barnow, vice president, Verra Mobility. “These programs are complex and must align with strict legislative requirements, so we are honored that the City put their trust in Verra Mobility. As we’ve seen in other cities, these programs are highly effective at reducing dangerous driving, and we’re excited to get to work to advance our shared goal of safer streets for millions of Angelenos.”
As a nationally recognized leader in automated traffic enforcement, Verra Mobility brings proven expertise to speed safety programs already operating in San Francisco and Oakland. Cities across the country have seen speeding drop by as much as 94% where this technology is deployed. Most notably, San Francisco’s program was recently credited by residents with driving a 50% decline in traffic fatalities in the past year and an 80% decline in speeding after one year.
In Los Angeles, speeding remains one of the most persistent and preventable causes of traffic deaths. According to the Speed Safety System Impact Report, speeding was a factor in 16% of all fatal and severe crashes in Los Angeles between 2017 and 2021. In 2024 alone, over 300 Angelenos were killed in traffic collisions, with one in five of those deaths attributed to speeding.
As part of the program, Verra Mobility will provide the City solutions aligned with AB 645 legislation to help ensure vigorous data and privacy protections, equitable fines, thoughtful education, and a balanced community approach that will begin immediately. Morgner Construction Management, a Los Angeles minority business enterprise (MBE), is expected to be contracted to perform on-the-ground construction and installation of the cameras.
Verra Mobility has led the industry in California, implementing complex, first-of-its-kind programs: San Francisco was the first speed safety program in the state; Mountain House was the first red-light camera safety program implemented under new legislation, SB 720. Now, the company leads the largest and most expansive automated enforcement program in Los Angeles.
