Based on previous Northwestern University research, we already knew that Chicago’s red light cameras have been doing their job to prevent serious and fatal crashes. Today the Chicago Department of Transportation provided Streetsblog with more recent data that reaffirms that the cams are saving lives.
However, in February 2020 state legislators led by then-Republican state rep David McSweeney of Barrington Hills overwhelming passed legislation in the Illinois House that would ban red light cameras in many suburban municipalities, although Chicago would not be affected. But last month fellow GOP state rep Deanne Mazzochi of Elmhurst introduced a new bill that would ban the cams everywhere in Illinois, including our city.
Crain’s Chicago political columnist Greg Hinz made some valid points in yesterday’s column about current conditions on the CTA, and the need for improvement if local transit ridership is ever going to return to pre-pandemic levels.
Hinz is a transit fan, but he argues that the system, especially the ‘L’, is “a big, crashing mess at the moment, with the tubes filthy and stained with graffiti, elevators and escalators out of operation, cars converted into rolling homeless shelters, rules about eating and smoking seemingly forgotten, and police presence all but invisible.” He asserts that people aren’t going to return to riding buses and train when workplaces reopen if the CTA is “dirty, dark and scary.”
