Automated speed enforcement in work zones will save lives
Having taken a major step toward addressing Pennsylvania’s bridge and highway funding needs with the passage of Act 89, PHIA and the construction industry are turning their attention toward work zone safety.
The industry is lining up behind legislation that will provide for camera enforcement of speed limits in work zones. Five years of experience with such a system in Maryland proves that this approach is exceptionally effective.
It’s not just about construction workers. In four out of five work zone crashes, it’s motorists and passengers who are injured or killed, not construction workers.
In Maryland, the number of work zone speeding violations has dropped dramatically since the program began. Click below to view a short video, and check back at www.PaHighwayInfo.org for periodic updates.

Act 89 vote shows little or no impact on legislative campaigns
Although the General Election still awaits, there is no sign that enactment of a transportation funding measure last year is having an impact on this year’s legislative campaign. PHIA Managing Director Jason Wagner provides an update.
