The city is rolling out red light cameras at six high-risk intersections this summer, with more planned in the coming years.
The city is partnering with Arizona-based Verra Mobility to operate the cameras, which aim to catch drivers running red lights.
Saw Mill Run Boulevard. and Woodruff Street is one of the six intersections that will have the technology installed first.
Red light cameras will also be installed at General Robinson and Anderson Street on the North Shore, 5th Avenue and Negley Avenue, West End Bridge and Route 65, North Dallas and Penn Avenues and at Park View Boulevard and Browns Hills Road in Squirrel Hill.
City officials say footage will be reviewed by a police officer before any ticket is issued.
Council member Erika Strassburger says the goal is to reduce crashes and move closer to zero injuries and fatalities on Pittsburgh streets.
By 2029, up to 30 intersections could be monitored by the automated system, giving drivers plenty of incentive to stop on red.
Strassburger introduced the program in July 2024, and it was approved by City Council in August 2025.
