Automated Speed Enforcement

When a vehicle exceeds the posted speed limit in an ASE area, the ASE system captures an image of the vehicle. 

A provincial offences officer reviews the image and issues a ticket. 

The ticket, including a digital copy of the image and an enlargement of the license plate, is mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle within 30 days of the offence.

Tickets are issued to the owner of the vehicle regardless of who was driving. No demerit points will be issued.

The advance notice signs are being placed in the initial 14 areas, two in each ward, to let residents know that ASE cameras will be installed in their neighbourhood in the coming months. The cameras are anticipated to go live in January 2025.

Oakville’s ASE program will be rolled out in phases. 

The town’s 14 cameras will be rotated through various community safety zones, where speeding has proven to be a consistent problem.

The first 14 ASE locations are:

1. Colonel Williams Parkway from Stocksbridge Avenue/Richview Boulevard to Watercliffe Court
2. Rebecca Street from Sussex Street to Bronte Road.
3. Old Abbey Lane between Montrose Abbey Drive and Milton Road/ Northwood Drive 
4. Nottinghill Gate from Runnymead Crescent (easterly intersection) to Beechgrove Crescent
5. Reynolds Street between Cornwall Road and Sumner Avenue.
6. Kingsway Drive from Wynten Way/ Winterbourne Drive to Prince John Circle/ Sir David Drive
7. Westoak Trails Boulevard from Brookhaven Crescent/Arbourview Drive to Colbeck Street/ Amberglen Court
8. Pine Glen Road between Newcastle Crescent (westerly intersection) and Proudfoot Trail 
9. Sixth Line from Elm Drive to Upper Middle Road
10. River Glen Boulevard from Towne Boulevard to Mowat Avenue
11. Glenashton Drive from Eighth Line to Grand Boulevard 
12. North Ridge Trail between Glenashton Drive and Postridge Drive
13. Sixteen Mile Drive from Preserve Drive to Larry Crescent/Isaac Avenue
14. Post Road from Dundas Street to Threshing Mill Boulevard 

An ASE ticket includes a set fine determined by the Chief Judge of the Ontario Court of Justice. 

The fine is based on the vehicle’s rate of speed over the posted speed limit at the time the image was taken.

The ticket amount includes:

• The set fine
• Applicable court costs
• A victim fine surcharge, credited to the provincial Victims’ Justice Fund

The penalties are coordinated through a provincial Joint Processing Center (JPC), which is a common platform that collects data from all ASE cameras across all municipalities, and Provincial Offence Officers issue ASE tickets.

ASE is proven to effectively enforce speed limits, increase driver awareness and decrease injuries and fatalities. A number of municipalities across Ontario have already implemented ASE.

ASE is about safety. With clear signage posted, ASE is the reminder we all need to slow down and help keep our communities safe, especially in areas where people of all ages tend to walk, run, bike and play.
