In order to enhance safety and reduce accidents, New York State is implementing a new program to automatically fine drivers who exceed the speed limit in designated work zones throughout the state. This initiative, a joint effort of the State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and the Thruway Authority (NYSTA), will be in effect for the next five years. Automatic cameras will be deployed to capture the license plates of speeding vehicles, and the state will issue Notices of Liability to the registered owners. Notably, the owner of the vehicle will be held financially responsible for the fine, regardless of who was operating the vehicle at the time of the violation. This measure aims to promote accountability and encourage responsible driving behavior. The following locations have been identified as work zones where automatic speeding fines will be imposed between April 27, 2024, and Saturday, April 27, 2024: – NY Route 33 between Fillmore Avenue and Northland Avenue, City of Buffalo – US Route 219 SB at Duerr Road Overpass, Town of Orchard Park – I-87 NB over West Mill Brook – I-390 SB between exit 10 and 8 – PK_908C Loop Parkway/Long Creek – PK_907P N/B from W 125th Street to W 163rd Street – I-84 W/B Between Exit 39 and Exit 32 – NY_440 N/B & S/B at South Avenue – NY_440 N/B & S/B at Arden Avenue – I-88 WB before Exit 25 – I-88 WB between Normans Kill and Suits Ravine – I-88 EB before Exit 25 – NY_27 W/B Titmus Drive to Moriches Middle Island Rd – I-87 NB between Exit 22 and Exit 23/Bridge over Rte 9 Drivers are urged to exercise caution and adhere to posted speed limits in these work zones to avoid potential fines and ensure the safety of road workers and other motorists.
