Fairfax County is considering bringing red-light cameras back to the county just eight years after officials scrapped a similar program because it was losing money.

The county lost more than $1.3 million during its first experiment with the cameras because of high operating costs and too few tickets to cover them, officials said. Lawmakers said they remain hopeful that a second attempt would be more financially rewarding.
