Town of Forest Heights - Speed Monitoring Systems - Maryland Route 210 PG 324-26

This bill authorizes the Town of Forest Heights to install and operate two speed monitoring cameras on Maryland Route 210 between the Interstate 95/495 interchange and the intersection of Kerby Hill Road and Livingston Road. The legislation permits the town to use fines collected from speeding violations to cover system costs and allocate remaining funds for public safety, highway improvements, and traffic-calming projects within the community. By updating state law, the bill also formally recognizes Forest Heights as a local jurisdiction eligible to place speed monitoring systems on this specific stretch of road. The changes take effect on October 1, 2026, allowing the town to proceed with the installation after following required public notice and hearing procedures.
