Brookhurst St. & Orangewood Ave.

BROR-01 nbThe city of Garden Grove contracts with the private company Redflex Traffic Systems to operate a red light camera system at the intersection of Brookhurst St. and Orangewood Ave. The camera monitors northbound traffic on Brookhurst

The speed limit at this intersection is 45 mph, which means the CA Vehicle Code and the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices requires that each yellow light must be at least a minimum of 4.2 seconds in duration for through traffic.

The camera captures approximately 120-190 incidents per month, from which an average of about 60-100 tickets are issued. Many of the violations issued at this intersection are for rolling right turns.

Overall, the city of Garden Grove has 14 red light camera approaches at eight different intersections within the city limits. The city issues roughly 600-800 red light camera tickets per month.

This intersection has been operational since the city installed the cameras in 2005. A five year extension of the contract was signed in September of 2010, meaning the cameras at this intersection are likely to remain in place until at least 2015. The city pays at least $2,900 per approach, per month for 11 operation approaches, which equates to nearly $400,000 a year.
