Gwinnett approves traffic cameras on Ga. 124
The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners approved new traffic cameras on Ga. 124 last week.
Commissioners awarded a $677,377 contract to Midasco LLC to install fiber-optic cables and traffic monitoring cameras along nearly 7 miles of the highway from U.S. 78 to the DeKalb County line. The new equipment will allow Gwinnett to make real-time adjustments to traffic signals based on conditions.
The public can view live feeds from traffic cameras 24 hours a day at www.gcsmartcommute.com and on the county's cable television channel from 6:30 to 8:30 am. and from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays.
