The Department of Transportation Announces Additional Automated Enforcement Locations Starting July 2021
BALTIMORE, MD — The Baltimore City Department of Transportation would like to advise motorists that five new automated speed enforcement locations will soon be implemented, as part of the City’s Automated Traffic Violation Enforcement System (ATVES).
Baltimore’s ATVES program uses automated enforcement cameras to promote safe driving by reducing driver speeds in school zones throughout the city. 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. The speed camera violation fine is $40.00 as prescribed by State Law.
Automated speed cameras will begin enforcement operations on or about Monday, July 19, 2021 at the following locations, including multiple directions:
- 2400-3200 blocks E. Monument Street (eastbound) – Tench Tilghman Elementary/Middle School, William Paca Elementary School
- 800-1400 blocks Key Highway (northbound and southbound) – Digital Harbor High School
- 2100-2800 blocks Patapsco Avenue (eastbound and westbound) – Lansdowne Middle School, Lakeland Elementary/Middle School
- 1100-1900 blocks E. Preston Street – Johnston Square Elementary, Collington Square Elementary
- 3300-4100 blocks Hillen Road – Mergenthaler Vocational Technical High School, Montebello Elementary/Middle School
The block ranges and intersections listed above are approximations for the automated enforcement zones. Enforcement at all locations may be on a temporary, rotating, or permanent basis. To learn more about Baltimore’s ATVES program visit: https://transportation.baltimorecity.gov/atvesprogram.
