Flock & ALPR Cameras in Robinson, Texas

Volunteers have reported 13 automated license plate readers in and around Robinson — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

On the record · Contract Canceled

Robinson is on the record here. Robinson City Council voted unanimously September 1, 2026 not to renew the city's Flock Safety contract after a one-year trial. Coverage put 11 cameras in the city. Police Chief Larry Adams said the department deactivated Flock access after the vote. Mayor Greg May said the decision tracked resident opposition and would likely have happened even without Abbott's state funding pause. Nearby Woodway and San Saba County had already backed away from plate-reader networks.

What’s watching Robinson

These aren’t red-light cameras. Automated license plate readers like Flock Safety’s photograph every plate that passes, log the time and place, and store it in a searchable database that’s often shared far beyond Robinson — here’s where that data goes. Counts cover cameras reported closest to Robinson (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
