Get Automatic Speeding Tickets In These 11 New York Work Zones

If you get caught speeding on any of these 11 roads in New York State this week, you will get an automatic speeding ticket. Drivers on these roads who speed will get an automatic ticket between today and October 25, 2025. New York Vehicle & Traffic Law § 1180-E allows for automated speed monitoring in certain construction zones around the state. The program, which is a joint effort by the State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and the Thruway Authority (NYSTA), will last for five years.

The NYSDOT and the NYSTA may impose a fine on the registered owner of a vehicle speeding in a work zone on a controlled access highway.

While a lot of New Yorkers complain about the automated speeding tickets in work zones, there are a significant number of incidents that put workers' lives at risk. Last year, there were 156 crashes on the New York State Thruway in work zones. Those crashes resulted in 30 injuries and one death. In addition, two Thruway employees died and one was seriously injured in work zone crashes. Also in 2024, there were 322 intrusions in New York State Department of Transportation work zones. Two driver who entered a work zone died. There were 138 injuries to highway employees and drivers. Since 1939, 58 employees of the NYSDOT have died on the job.
