A 30-day warning period ends next week for drivers on a Fairfax City street that is being monitored by a new red light camera.

The city installed the camera last month to monitor eastbound traffic on Fairfax Boulevard (Route 29/50) at Plantation Parkway. The city police will begin using it for enforcement purposes next Monday, according to a police statement, handing out tickets to motorists who are caught on camera running the red lights at the intersection.

Other red light cameras are installed at the intersections of University Drive and North Street, Main Street and Pickett Road, and at Fairfax Circle.

Information pertaining to the photo red light program can be found on the city website here, as well as CityScene and City Channel 12.
