The Baytown Bulletin Board

Gonna have to start being more careful pretty soon...

From baytown.org...

The City of Baytown has contracted with American Traffic Solutions (ATS), to manage the red-light camera installation and operations. ATS has reported that construction and installation of the remaining nine red-light camera installations are ahead of schedule. The remaining cameras are anticipated to be functioning and begin their warning period on July 13, 2008, over a week earlier than originally expected. All nine locations will come on-line at the same time and the warning period will be effective for 30 calendar days. If the cameras begin operation as planned the warning citations will be replaced with actual citations on August 11, 2008.

The nine intersections currently under construction are as follows;

Highway 146 southbound at North Alexander Drive, West Baker Road eastbound at Decker Drive, Garth Road southbound at Highway 146, Garth Road northbound at Interstate 10 Garth Road southbound at Interstate 10, Garth Road southbound at West Baker Road, West Baker Road eastbound at Garth Road, West Baker Road westbound, Business 146 southbound at Wyoming Street and North Alexander Drive northbound at Highway 146.

As a correction to the Baytown Sun article on June 3, 2008, the red-light camera installations at Garth and Baker Roads will not revert to a warning period but will continue issuing traffic citations to violators. Only the nine new camera installations as listed above will have a 30 day warning period.

For additional information, please contact the Baytown City Clerks Office at 281-420-6504.

Big Brother is watching...

More revenue for our spend thrift city government. Nice trees though.

You have to wonder how the City was going to pay for Alexander Drive beautification project. I have looked at that piece of work for weeks and watched the dirt wash off in the street. Just what businesses would this effect for as developers? Gibsons, Bay Plaza?

Like my recycle box, it made a great planter box for $24 a year. Baytown is getto and not going to get anymore attention in that idea than voter turn out. I think tose who do not recycle should be able to return the burden box.

We have kin with rental properties and paying multible for the unused boxes.


I haven't seen a red light camera yet.

I laugh and point out the beautification sign to my boyfriend everytime we pass it on Alexander. You're right CS, it goes well with all the dirt.

And I'm so glad someone agrees with me about those stupid recycle boxes. Did you read the flyer that came with it? "Squish this, trash that, tie this up with rope...". What? Why can't I just put it in the darn box and move on? Yeah, mine's sitting right next to my front door where it has been since day one.
