Flock & ALPR Cameras in South Salt Lake, Utah

Volunteers have reported 25 automated license plate readers in and around South Salt Lake — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 25 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of South Salt Lake, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 3 of them sit inside South Salt Lake itself.

The rest sit in Salt Lake City (21), West Valley City (1).

2 of them name an operator in the record: The Home Depot (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

Source: community-mapped camera data (OpenStreetMap, ODbL), with addresses resolved by Nominatim.

What’s watching South Salt Lake

These aren’t red-light cameras.
