New Cameras Monitor North-South Corridors

It's a big week for cameras that watch traffic around Spokane. Not only did four new photo red cameras go online this morning, but the Spokane Regional Transportation Management Center (SRTMC) put 16 new cameras into place last week that watch north-south corridors within the City limits.

KXLY visited the SRTMC, which is located within the SRTC offices, to see how those cameras are used to make your commute safer and more convenient.
