Cancún, Quintana Roo — Under a proposed coordination agreement, revenue from traffic cameras in Cancún will be split 70% to the Quintana Roo Mobility Institute (Imoveqroo) and 30% to the municipality of Benito Juárez.
The agreement outlines a financial framework where 70% of income generated by photo-enforcement systems goes to the state institute, with the remainder staying in municipal coffers.
The deal also aims to establish the technological basis for detecting violations using both fixed and mobile devices, replicating models already in place in Jalisco and Mexico City.
Under the terms, Imoveqroo will be responsible for acquiring, installing, and maintaining the electronic systems, as well as covering operating costs. Municipal traffic officers will handle evaluating, issuing, and notifying penalties captured by the devices, collecting payments, and transferring the corresponding amounts to state coffers within the first five days of each month.
To facilitate compliance, the agreement includes creating a web portal where drivers can check violations generated by the photo-enforcement system and make electronic payments.
The project also calls for the creation of a State Road Incident Registry, designed to strengthen risk analysis and inform road safety policy. The registry will help identify the most dangerous zones in the city for targeted enforcement using mobile units and trained personnel.
The agreement will remain in effect from its signing until September 29, 2027. If disputes arise during implementation, authorities said they will seek a mutual resolution; failing that, the process will be subject to Quintana Roo law and the competent courts in Cancún.
