<br /> 7C <br />the San Mateo program, it is estimated that the Redwood City Police Department would Page 3 <br />need to dedicate approximately 40 hours per week to manage a proposed photo red <br />light enforcement system. This could be accomplished with a single full-time employee <br />or two or more part-time employees. <br />Redwood City Accident and Citation Historv: The City of Redwood City currently has 85 <br />intersections controlled by signal lights. Fifty-eight of these intersections are <br />maintained by the City of Redwood City, while 27 intersections are maintained by <br />CalTrans due to their placement along state routes (i.e. Woodside Road and EI Camino <br />Real). A portion of the research conducted for this informational report included a 5- <br />year intersection accident history review and a summary of red light violation <br />enforcement.
