Joburg to appoint new service provider for automated traffic speed cameras

Seven months ago the City of Johannesburg lost access to all automated traffic speed cameras.

The Johannesburg Metro Police Department contract with service provider, Syntell, lapsed in December, 2025, and no replacement has been appointed yet.

Syntell reportedly removed its cameras and back end systems, so automated speed prosecutions are completely halted.

The JMPD says its now navigating the necessary municipal supply chain and procurement processes to appoint a new service provider.
