Speeders Beware: Tickets Will Be Issued Southbound I-95 Near MD 152 In Construction Zone

Speed enforcement equipment will be set up in the construction zone along I-95 starting Sept. 19 with tickets issued beginning Oct. 10.

HARFORD COUNTY, MD — Starting Sept. 19, the Maryland Transportation Authority will deploy automated speed enforcement equipment on southbound I-95 near MD 152 in Harford County in the area of a construction zone on I-95. The equipment will be used to help deter speeding in the work zones along this stretch of I-95, according to the MDTA.

Advance warning signs have been put in place to alert drivers of ASE cameras and a “speed trailer” will be set up to display drivers’ speeds. After a 21-day warning period, Maryland State Police will authorize citations starting Oct. 10. By law, if a vehicle is recorded traveling at or above a specified rate over the posted speed limit, a $40 fine will be issued to the registered owner of the vehicle. The posted speed is 65 mph at this location.

The current work along this section on I-95 is part of the MDTA’s $1.1 billion I-95 express toll lanes northbound extension program to relieve congestion and improve safety and travel along the I-95 corridor into Harford County.
