TMR09418 - Camera Detected Offence Program (CDOP) - Development of New Evaluation Methodology and 2017 Evaluation

The CDOP is jointly managed by TMR and the Queensland Police Service (QPS) and covers
management and operation of all modes of camera based traffic enforcement in Queensland. The
CDOP manages the following types of camera detection devices across Queensland:
• Red light cameras
• Combined red light/speed cameras
• Mobile speed cameras
• Fixed speed cameras
• Road safety trailer camera, and
• Point to point speed camera systems.

To assist in the ongoing management and future development of program operations, evaluations of
the program have been regularly conducted. TMR previously commissioned an evaluation
methodology for the CDOP which integrated the impacts of different camera types, both existing and
future, and conveyed the use of available speed monitoring data as an intermediate measure of the
effectiveness of the CDOP.

Since then, several changes have been implemented including a new camera scheduling system,
considerable expansion of mobile camera sites and the introduction of several new camera devices.
