Drivers speeding around two Chattanooga schools will start receiving $50 citations this fall, and the program could come to more areas, according to officials.

Traffic cameras installed around Orchard Knob Elementary and Brainerd High School are scheduled to be activated on Oct. 6, kicking off a 30-day warning period, after which speeding drivers will be cited, according to a press release. The cameras will be monitored by the Chattanooga Police Department.
