112 Redflex Traffic Systems, provider of public safety technology throughout North America, has been awarded a Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce 2017 Impact Award as an ‘exceptional innovator’.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary, the Impact Awards recognises companies in the Phoenix-metro area for their leadership in the business community and positive impact on the economy.

While Redflex is best known for operating automated red-light and speed camera programs, the company has helped develop numerous facets of the traffic safety industry, including the school bus stop-arm enforcement program, Redflex Student Guardian, which protects children as they enter and exit the bus. It helped initiate portable handheld photo speed enforcement programs and developed the Redflex intelligent collision pre-emption system, a comprehensive photo enforcement solution, which helps to prevent T-bone crashes at signalised intersections.
