Decision:

To authorise Legal to sign an agreement between Stockton Borough Council and Cleveland Police to provide two Safety Cameras on Myton Way, Ingleby Barwick.
The Council and the Police have agreed to cooperate in order to provide the infrastructure and administration necessary to carry out enforcement of speed limits and traffic light signals at the Safety Cameras location on Myton Way, Ingleby Barwick to achieve maximum road safety benefit.
The Police have agreed to carry out all administrative functions to process violations of the speed limit under the Traffic Regulation Orders and the traffic light signals at the Safety Cameras locations on Myton Way, Ingleby Barwick, between its junctions with Blair Avenue/Ingleby Way to the south and its junction with Broom Hill Avenue to the north.
Funding has been allocated as part of the 2025/26 CRSTS local highways programme to deliver this project, with £100,000 allocated to purchase and install the cameras and associated infrastructure.

Reasons for the decision:

There have been 10 road casualties at the Sandgate Junction, on Myton Way, Ingleby Way in the last three years and evidence has also been provided and collected of other non-injury crashes occurring at the junction involving speeding and red light running.
Officers have worked with Jenoptik, a leading camera manufacturer, to deliver a scheme to introduce permanent safety cameras covering the Sandgate junction. The proposal will see cameras installed in two permanent locations on Myton Way to identify speeding and red-light running offences.
The aim of the agreement is to reduce speed and danger to the public by ensuring that speed and traffic light signal offences are enforced and processed for that location.
