The City of Belleville will be relocating its Automatic Speed Enforcement (ASE) cameras to new Community Safety Zones beginning the week of June 2 to 6, 2025. The move is part of an ongoing traffic safety initiative aimed at reducing speeding in areas with higher pedestrian and vehicular activity.

The new ASE camera locations will be:

Bridge Street West (from Sidney Street to Haslett Court)

Sidney Street (from Tracey Street to College Street West)

Harmony Road (from Highway 37 to 449 Harmony Road)

Cannifton Road (from College Street East to Bell Boulevard/Adam Street)

Public response to ASE cameras has been mixed. While many residents support the initiative for its focus on road safety, others have raised concerns about surveillance, ticket fairness, and potential revenue generation. Some cameras have also been targeted by vandals in recent months, reflecting ongoing debate about their use.

Despite differing opinions, Belleville Police continue to support the program as a proactive safety measure.

“Our focus is on protecting lives, not issuing tickets,” said a Belleville police officer. “Speeding is a major factor in many collisions. These cameras help remind drivers to slow down, especially in zones where community safety is a priority.”
