IDOT announced Thursday that it has revoked its permit for a red-light camera at Route 83 and 22nd Street in Oakbrook Terrace.
The department said despite repeated requests, Oakbrook Terrace did not submit a post-installation analysis on the effectiveness of the camera in improving safety at the intersection – as per IDOT policy.
According to the charges, a red-light camera firm identified only as"Company A" got a one-year contract to operate red light cameras in Oakbrook Terrace in September 2012, with options for two one-year renewals, but the first cameras did not begin operating until August 2017. Shortly before Individual B-1 died in January 2018, Ragucci met with him and an unnamed"Individual B-2," who ended up taking over as Company B's president, and continued making the monthly payments to Ragucci.
