Just a reminder that these cameras were budgeted for and installed by the City Engineering Department. They are monitored by our dispatch staff on a 24/7 basis, and show both a North and South view of the traffic lanes of the Diefenbaker Bridge. Their purpose is simply to monitor traffic flow. They are non-recording, and have no ‘zoom’ or other specialized features.
