Grande Prairie Takes Back Traffic Enforcement | Canada News

Grande Prairie is bringing its speed camera program back under city control, ending a long contract with Global Traffic Group so ticket revenue stays local. After the province slashed camera sites across Alberta—calling some “fishing holes”—the city stood firm, citing decades of data showing reduced speeding and severe injuries when cameras are active. With traffic and infractions surging post-pandemic, the program issued over 7,600 tickets in 2025, generating more than $833,000—down from $1.9 million in 2024, much of which went to the contractor. Now, with full in-house management, Grande Prairie aims for tighter oversight and a sharper focus on community safety.
