Flock & ALPR Cameras in Chicopee, Massachusetts

Volunteers have reported 34 automated license plate readers in and around Chicopee — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 34 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Chicopee, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 25 of them sit inside Chicopee itself.

The rest sit in Holyoke (5), West Springfield (4).

12 of them name an operator in the record: Mass State Police (6), West Springfield Police (3), Chicopee Police (2), Holyoke Police or Holyoke Mall (1). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
