A near miss camera is being installed at the intersection of Great Eastern Highway and Stoneville Road to help improve road safety and better understand how drivers are using the intersection.
The project is being delivered in partnership with the WA Road Safety Commission and forms part of ongoing work to improve safety along Great Eastern Highway.
The camera will collect information about traffic movements, vehicle speeds and near miss incidents. This data will help build a clearer picture of how the intersection operates and identify potential safety risks.
Importantly, the camera is not an enforcement device and will not issue infringements or detect speeding offences.
Instead, the technology is designed to gather information that can support evidence-based road safety planning and help guide future decisions about potential improvements at the intersection.
Near miss cameras are increasingly being used by road authorities and researchers because they can identify risky interactions between vehicles before a serious crash occurs. By analysing near miss events, road safety practitioners can better understand where hazards exist and investigate ways to reduce the risk of future collisions.
The information collected at the Great Eastern Highway and Stoneville Road intersection will contribute to broader road safety planning and support ongoing discussions about improvements along this section of highway.
Hear from Shire President Paige McNeil and Member for Kalamunda Adam Hort MLA in the video below as they explain how the project will help build a safer road network for the community.
The Shire will continue working with the WA Road Safety Commission and other stakeholders to improve safety outcomes at key intersections across the Hills, including nearby locations such as Scott Street and Seaborne Street.
