Controlling the speed of circulation on the routes that cross the cities is one of the objectives of the mayors who present the situation as a way of caring for pedestrians who must cross the road. The controversy over the hidden objective of the collection did not dissipate.
In Neuquén, the municipality of San Patricio del Chañar has a team in operation that uses it on Provincial Route 7, Villa La Angostura also has four radars authorized to do the same on National Route 40.
The Executive Director of the National Road Safety Agency, Pablo Julián Martínez Carignano, approved and authorized the municipality of Senillosa two mobile installation speed controller cinemometers to be used between kilometers 1,252 and 1,256 of National Route 22 in both directions of circulation.
This authorization is required for national roads but not for provincial roads where there is no regulation.
The Senillosa process took a few years, since they were acquired in March 2015, but only on Thursday, January 19 of this year, were they authorized by the competent body.
The agency’s function is to authorize the placement of automatic and semi-automatic violation control systems on roads, routes and highways under national jurisdiction.
Until the double traffic lane was inaugurated in the urban section of Senillosa, the speed of traffic was difficult to control beyond the signs indicating an urban area and very old traffic lights whose lights barely worked. As the primary school, the municipality and the police station are located on the north side of Route 22, the road crossing to the south where urban development is located is constant.
At the beginning of last year, the completion of the road works between Plottier and Arroyito was hurried and the urban crossing in Senillosa was enabled with collectors and modern pedestrian traffic lights that, somehow, reduce the danger of crossing the road that is now four lanes.
In any case, a few kilometers from reaching Senillosa there is a police control that forces you to slow down.
Neuquén to dissuade
The municipality of Neuquén acquired for $40 million a modern radar system with a screen that shows the license plate number of the passing vehicle and the speed at which it is going.
During the first three months of operation, 78.9% of motorists respect the maximum speed in those posted at the pedestrian crossings of the Dr Ramón and Raúl Alfonsín corridor at the north entrance of the city.
The municipality stressed that due to the operation of these teams at the end of Olascoaga Avenue, located on the sidewalk, the pitfalls on this artery had ended without the need to fine.
