During the 30 day period, the northbound traffic count was 5,523 vehicles per day. There was an average of 26 violators northbound each day. Southbound traffic count was 8,860 vehicles per day with an average of 41 violators per day.
The cameras began to issue citations as of March 1, 2011. The camera will issue $124 citations to the owners of vehicles that travel faster than the 20 mile per hour speed limit through the school zone.
Each citation is reviewed by a Lake Forest Park police officer.
