In 2012, the City of Seattle began installing fixed cameras to enforce the 20 mph school zone speed limit and reduce the number of car-related injuries and fatalities. The city started with four elementary schools.

The program has expanded and now 14 schools:

  • Olympic View Elementary
  • Broadview-Thomson (K-8)
  • Gatewood Elementary
  • Thurgood Marshall Elementary
