S 9238 establishes a temporary program allowing the city of New Rochelle to use photo speed cameras in school zones to issue fines to vehicle owners for speeding violations. The program permits up to three school zones at a time, with cameras active during school hours and 30 minutes before/after school or student activities. Key provisions require annual calibration checks, privacy safeguards to blur driver/vehicle details in images, and strict handling of recorded data (destruction after case resolution). The program expires December 31, 2031, and applies only to New Rochelle's school speed zones.

This bill mandates that the New York City Transit Authority must have at least one conductor on every subway or train, with limited exceptions for current operations. The law defines a conductor as the staff member responsible for safety tasks like opening and closing doors, distinguishing them from the driver or engineer. Proponents argue this requirement enhances passenger safety and provides a critical first responder presence to handle emergencies or potential security threats. The measure applies immediately to all passenger trains operated by the authority.

This bill amends the "County of Westchester Public Works Investment Act" to officially include the replacement of five specific bridges as eligible projects for funding. The legislation directly affects the Westchester County Department of Public Works by adding these bridge replacements to the list of authorized construction and repair activities. The five bridges targeted for replacement are the Anita Lane, Ward Avenue, Halstead Avenue, Oakland Beach Avenue, and Playland Parkway bridges, all located in Mamaroneck or Rye. By making these projects eligible, the bill allows the county to utilize existing public works funds to repair or rebuild these structures without needing separate legislative approval for each one.
Requires the consideration of complete street design for certain transportation projects which receive federal or state funding; authorizes the department to compile and make publicly available guidance and reference material related to consideration of complete street design.
