Stouffville Concludes Automated Speed Enforcement Camera Program On November 14

The Town of Stouffville’s automated speed enforcement (ASE) camera system will cease tracking new violations as of Friday, November 14. This action follows recent provincial legislative changes that will lead to the removal of ASE across Ontario.

Any speeding violations captured before Friday November 14, as dated on the penalty order, remain valid and must still be paid or disputed by offending drivers. Drivers have 30 days to respond to issued tickets; after which, the Penalty Order becomes confirmed. If left unpaid, fines enter default status, commonly referred to as “plate denial”, and the Ministry of Transportation may apply additional fees. These fines and fees must be paid in full at a Service Ontario location before a vehicle licence plate can be renewed.

While the cameras will stop capturing speed violations on November 14, cameras may still appear active at times,with intermittent flashes visible as contractors work to remove the cameras in the coming weeks. Signs indicating camera use may remain in place temporarily while Town staff complete their removal.

Residents are reminded to continue to comply with speed limits and school safety zone restrictions, regardless of the ASE program’s status. Additional traffic calming signage will be installed in the coming week upon receipt from the Province.

“Safety on our roads remains a top priority for the Town,” said Stouffville Mayor Iain Lovatt. “While the ASE program has helped deter speeding in school and community safety zones, we will continue evolving our traffic‑calming approach in line with provincial changes. We thank residents for their cooperation and encourage everyone to continue driving responsibly.”

The Town of Stouffville’s ASE camera system only applies to the twelve cameras that are installed on municipal roads. For information on cameras on Regional roads, visit york.ca/transportation/traffic/automated-speed-enforcement
