New York, NY — Today’s bill signing to expand the number of red light cameras in New York City is a major win for street safety. In June, the New York City Council passed a home rule resolution in support of reauthorizing the red light camera program with a modest increase. 

I am grateful to Governor Hochul for signing this critical legislation into law as well as the New York State legislators who were instrumental in getting to this point. I look forward to seeing the extended benefits of red light cameras across the city, and am committed to doing the work at the Council level to further mitigate traffic violations and accidents.
