The Baltimore City Department of Transportation announced Tuesday that new automated speed enforcement locations will soon be implemented, as part of the City’s Automated Traffic Violation Enforcement System.
Baltimore’s Automated Traffic Violation Enforcement System uses automated speed, red-light and commercial vehicle height monitoring cameras to promote safe driving in city communities. The program is designed to increase safety by reducing driver speeds in school zones and decreasing the incidence of vehicles running red lights.
The program also helps to reduce traffic congestion and damage to streets, homes and other infrastructure by commercial vehicles that travel along restricted roadways.
The speed camera monitoring system consists of portable and fixed cameras that detect vehicles which exceed the posted speed limit by at least 12 miles per hour. Speed cameras operate in Baltimore City school zones Monday through Friday, from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM throughout the year.
