# British Columbia intersection camera replacement program > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/british-columbia-intersection-camera-replacement-program > Updated: 2026-09-17T16:39:51.000Z. Sources: 38. Developments: 2. The British Columbia Ministry of the Attorney General and ICBC have initiated a $67 million program to replace 140 aging red-light and speed cameras across the province. Jenoptik Canada has been selected to supply, install, and maintain the new high-resolution technology for a 10-year period. The upgrade will be conducted in phases through spring 2027, targeting high-risk intersections in regions such as Metro Vancouver, Victoria, Kelowna, Nanaimo, and Prince George. While new equipment is being installed, existing cameras will remain operational. Approximately 90 locations will require minor road or sidewalk work to accommodate new poles and wiring. Provincial data indicates the existing camera program has contributed to safety improvements, including a 13 per cent decrease in red-light infractions over the last five years and a 52 per cent reduction in drivers exceeding speed limits by more than 25 km/h over the past three years. While some critics view automated enforcement as a revenue-generating measure, proponents cite documented reductions in serious collisions and emergency service calls. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-17: British Columbia begins $67M replacement of intersection safety cameras ICBC is replacing 140 intersection safety cameras across British Columbia with modern technology in a $67 million program aimed at improving road safety and reducing collisions. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/british-columbia-begins-67m-replacement-of-intersection-safety-cameras ### 2026-09-10: British Columbia to replace 140 intersection cameras in $67M upgrade British Columbia is investing $67 million to replace 140 aging red-light and speed cameras with high-resolution technology through a 10-year contract with Jenoptik Canada. 36 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/british-columbia-to-replace-140-intersection-cameras-in-67m-upgrade --- Cite as: British Columbia intersection camera replacement program.
