The city of Wilmington has collected about $700,000 through its red-light camera program, and most of it remains unspent in city coffers.



About $600,000 remains in the fund created to hold revenue collected through the SafeLight program, which has issued more than 53,000 tickets and brought in nearly $2.4 million since its inception in March 2000. The city gets 30 percent of the revenue. Peek Traffic, the private company that runs the program, gets the rest.



Motorists photographed running red lights at the 15 intersections monitored by SafeLight cameras get $50 tickets, but no driver license points or insurance increases. The fines go into a special revenue fund used for traffic- and roadway-related projects. The City Council decides how and when the money will be spent, taking recommendations from city staff. So far, $52,000 has been set aside for the salary of Karen Dixon, a traffic analyst whose position was recently created.



The city also has identified about $60,000 for intersection improvements on North Front Street near Cape Fear Community College, said Traffic Engineering Manager Jim Flechtner, who oversees the SafeLight program for the city. Those plans haven't been finalized, he said.



That leaves nearly $600,000, with more cash coming in every day. The SafeLight program sent out 12,174 citations from Jan. 1 through July 31, according to city records. So far this year, the worst intersections for red-light runners are Market Street and Kerr Avenue, Wooster and 17th streets and Wooster and Third streets.



City Councilman Jim Quinn said he would like some SafeLight revenue to support the Wilmington Police Department's traffic division, which has gained national attention recently because of creative ways it snares speeders. Wilmington cops have zapped passing motorists while posing as bums in wheelchairs or construction workers in bucket trucks, among other disguises.



Mr. Quinn said he thinks more officers in the traffic division could help soften Wilmington's bad reputation for traffic safety.



"I'm out there on the streets and I see what people do and I don't like it," he said, adding that next year's budget process would be a good time to consider how to spend SafeLight dollars.



City Councilwoman Laura Padgett described the 53,000 SafeLight tickets as a "sad number." She said she was unaware the city had $600,000 remaining in the fund. The revenue could be used as the local match for state Department of Transportation road projects or for bicycle or walking paths, she said.



Councilman Jason Thompson said he also didn't know how much money was in the fund.



"I will be calling and asking what our plans are about how we should use the money," he said.



Ms. Dixon, the new traffic analyst, said she offers technological support for the city's Neighborhood Traffic Management Program by making sense of statistics such as traffic counts, neighborhood populations and other numbers. Her work can then be used by residents and city officials to solve traffic dilemmas, she said.



Her position also will help the city conduct neighborhood traffic studies at a faster pace – from two a year to four. The city will soon begin its fourth study, with plans to look at 50 neighborhoods through 2016.



Mr. Flechtner said SafeLight money would be a potential funding source for projects identified from the neighborhood studies, such as new sidewalks or turnarounds. He said program funds might also be spent as part of a DOT project to put in turn lanes at Wrightsville and MacMillan avenues.



Safety first?



Mr. Flechtner and other city officials say the program was brought to Wilmington to promote safety at busy Wilmington intersections, not to raise money.



"It's been a good program for the city of Wilmington in terms of reducing accidents and reducing injuries, and I hope it would continue," Mr. Flechtner said.



The city recently did a study on the number of accidents at 10 SafeLight intersections for three years before and three years since the program began. The numbers showed 625 accidents at those intersections before SafeLight and 434 after, or a decline of 31 percent. The study also showed 510 injuries reported in collisions at those intersections before the program, compared to 312 after, a 39 percent decline.



"That's what the program really is about – injuries," Mr. Flechtner said. "The bottom line is trying to reduce injuries."



During the six years studied, no fatal accidents occurred at any of the SafeLight intersections.



Wilmington was one of about a dozen North Carolina cities included in a recent AAA Carolinas study on red light programs. AAA's Tom Crosby said the program has changed driver behavior in those cities.



"We are seeing fewer outlaw red light runners, accidents are down and these intersections are safer for everyone," he said.



The survey showed most communities use the revenue for traffic safety improvements or to pay staff.
