Reminder: Speed Enforcement Cameras Along the Jones Falls Expressway Will Soon Be Moved to New Locations
Thursday Mar 20th, 2025
Enforcement at the new locations begins Monday, March 24th
BALTIMORE, MD (March 20, 2025) — The Baltimore City Department of Transportation (BCDOT) would like to remind motorists that the existing automated speed enforcement cameras along the Jones Falls Expressway (JFX) / I-83 will soon be moved to new enforcement locations on the expressway.
In an effort to decrease vehicular accidents and improve safety, automated speed enforcement cameras have been installed along the Jones Falls Expressway / I-83 within city limits. Enforcement locations have been identified along the JFX where high incidents of speeding and vehicular crashes typically occur.
The automated enforcement cameras currently located along the northbound and southbound JFX near the W. 41st Street bridge will soon be moved to new locations along the expressway. The automated speed enforcement cameras will be moved to the following locations:
- Northbound Jones Falls Expressway / I-83 at Smith Avenue
- Southbound Jones Falls Expressway / I-83 at W. North Avenue
Automated speed enforcement citations will be issued to violators from these new camera locations starting on Monday, March 24, 2025. A 15-day grace period has been provided to alert motorists of the new camera locations and to provide time for drivers to modify their behavior before enforcement operations begin. Motorists that exceed the posted speed limits by 12 or more miles per hour will receive citations by mail.
To alert drivers that automated speed enforcement is occurring, warning signs are posted along the expressway. Digital speed sentry signs have also been installed so that motorists will receive feedback of their speeds in real time to encourage compliance with posted speed limits.
The fine for an automated speed citation is $40, and since these are considered civil violations, no license points are assessed. Automated speed enforcement along the JFX is in effect 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. According to Maryland State law, speed camera revenues will be used to cover the operating costs of the JFX camera system, and remaining funds must be allocated for expressway improvements.
