Relating to contracts authorizing the use of photographic traffic signal enforcement systems.
HB 684 makes contracts for traffic camera systems void if they violate Texas Transportation Code rules. It repeals prior provisions from a 2019 law (H.B. 1631) regarding these contracts. The bill directly affects cities and private companies operating photographic traffic signal enforcement systems. Contracts must now comply with current code requirements to be valid. The law would take effect immediately with two-thirds legislative approval or September 1, 2025, if not approved.
