BALTIMORE, MD (August 20, 2024)  – The Baltimore City Department of Transportation would like to advise motorists that new automated speed enforcement locations will soon be implemented, as part of the City’s Automated Traffic Violation Enforcement System (ATVES). 

Baltimore’s automated speed enforcement program is designed 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 6:00AM to 8:00PM throughout the year.  The speed camera violation fine is $40.00 as set by State Law, and no license points are assessed. 

Speed camera implementation will begin on or about Monday, August 26, 2024, at the following locations, including multiple directions: 

  • 4500-4800 blocks of Hamilton Avenue – Hazelwood Elementary/Middle School
  • 3600-3900 blocks of Echodale Avenue – Arts & Idea Sudbury School, Gardenville Elementary School
  • 5000-5300 blocks of Hillen Road – Northwood Elementary School
  • 6000-6200 blocks of Belair Road – Glenmount Elementary/Middle School, City Neighbors Charter 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
