In relation to today's publication entitled "Next phase for traffic cameras in the air", and the references in it that the Department of Electromechanical Services, as the contracting authority, "has not given the green light to start the first phase" of the Photolocation System, the Ministry of Transport, Communications and Works clarifies the following:
As of 1 January 2022, the Photolabelling System is in the pilot phase of the integrated process. The purpose of the pilot phase is to test the technical aspects of the System and to record any problems and issues that may arise from its operation in a real environment.
The Ministry of Transport, Communications and Works, in collaboration with all relevant agencies and the contractor, is carefully monitoring the operation of the System and recording any practical issues identified, proceeding to their immediate resolution.
The Ministry reaffirms its commitment to the proper implementation of the Light Detection System, which has so far contributed significantly to the reduction of Road Traffic Code violations. Therefore, the first phase of the Light Detection System will be implemented once the necessary solutions are found and its smooth operation is ensured.
