MnDOT Is Testing Work Zone Speed Cameras to Boost Highway Safety on I-35W and Highway 65

The article reports on the Minnesota Department of Transportation’s pilot program testing work zone speed cameras on I-35W in Burnsville and Highway 65 near Braham. The cameras will photograph vehicles traveling 10 mph or more above the posted speed limit and send warning notices to drivers rather than issue fines. The program aims to encourage safer driving behavior and protect road workers, with public feedback helping MnDOT evaluate the program and determine whether to expand it to additional work zones.
