New Speed Cameras Coming to Baltimore School Zones
Five New Speed Cameras Coming to Baltimore School Zones Later This Month
Baltimore drivers will soon see five new automated speed enforcement cameras across the city as officials work to improve traffic safety near schools.
The Baltimore City Department of Transportation announced Friday that the new cameras will begin operating on Monday, October 26, 2026, in designated school zones.
The cameras will be installed at the following locations:
- 5700–6000 blocks of Loch Raven Boulevard: Near Cardinal Shehan School and Yorkwood Elementary School.
- 4600–5300 blocks of Moravia Road: Near Furley Elementary School.
- 2800–2900 blocks of West Baltimore Street: Near The SEED School of Maryland.
- 6200–6400 blocks of McClean Boulevard: Near Reginald F. Lewis High School.
- 2300–2500 blocks of East Northern Parkway: Near Baltimore Revolutionary Academy (BRAVE).
Unlike some traffic enforcement programs that operate only during school hours, Baltimore City’s school zone speed cameras are active year-round, Monday through Friday, from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Under Maryland law, speed camera fines increase based on how far a driver exceeds the posted speed limit.
Here’s a breakdown of the penalties:
The new cameras are part of Baltimore’s Automated Traffic Enforcement System (ATVES), which aims to reduce speeding, encourage safer driving habits and protect pedestrians, particularly children traveling to and from school.
Transportation officials are reminding motorists to pay attention to posted speed limits, especially when driving through school zones.
