Speed Cameras Will Fine Drivers on NYC Bridges, Tunnels
Speed cameras will soon monitor construction zones on New York City’s bridges and tunnels, thanks to a law signed by Gov. Kathy Hochul.
The law was part of Hochul’s 2026 state budget, which was adopted last week. It allows the MTA to install cameras on bridges and tunnels to automatically ticket speeding drivers. The cameras will temporarily monitor no more than nine work zones at a time.
It’s an expansion of the state’s existing Automated Work Zone Speed Enforcement program that fines drivers up to $100 for speeding through construction areas.
