Bill > HB913

This bill increases the number of speed monitoring systems (also known as speed cameras) allowed on Interstate 83 in Baltimore City from two to four, with an important limitation that only one speed monitoring system can be in operation in each direction at the same time. The bill makes permanent the authorization to place these speed monitoring systems on the interstate, removing the previous temporary provision that was set to expire on June 30, 2026. Speed monitoring systems are automated devices that detect and record vehicles exceeding the posted speed limit, typically used to improve traffic safety. The bill requires that the use of such systems must still be authorized by the local governing body after providing reasonable notice and holding a public hearing. The new provisions will take effect on June 1, 2025, ensuring continued legal framework for speed enforcement on this section of Interstate 83 in Baltimore City.
