A red light speed camera will be installed on a major Sydney road amid thousands of near-misses.

Residents have been calling on the state government to introduce a red light camera in the area between Henry Lawson Drive and Pozieres Avenue in Milperra.

Shortly after footage of dangerous near-misses was shared with Ben Fordham yesterday, the Roads Minister confirmed a camera will be installed “as a matter of priority”. (See full statement below)

Ben surprised local resident Paul with the news live on-air.

“That is fabulous news!”
