The bill S.35, introduced by Senators Gulick and others, aims to make the authority of the Agency of Transportation to utilize automated traffic law enforcement systems in work zones a permanent measure. This legislation seeks to repeal the prospective repeal set for 2024, specifically targeting the provisions outlined in 2024 Acts and Resolves No. 135, Sec. 5. Additionally, several sections of the same act, including Sec. 6, Sec. 7, and Sec. 8(b), are amended to remove certain legal language, effectively streamlining the existing law.
The bill emphasizes the importance of maintaining automated traffic enforcement in work zones to enhance safety and compliance with traffic regulations. The proposed changes will take effect immediately upon passage, ensuring that the authority to use these systems remains intact without interruption.
