PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. – Prince William County's Department of Transportation showed that its temporary photo-monitoring speed limit cameras have been effective in a recent Board of County Supervisors meeting, and is now requesting that they become permanent.

This temporary program has been in place since April 2023, but was implemented in early 2024 in highway work zones and school crossing zones. In July 2024, the Board voted to extend the pilot period until Aug. 31, 2025. Transportation staff have now requested that the program become a permanent fixture of the county.

Rick Canizales, director of the county's transportation department, said that since the implementation of cameras in several school zones, the county has issued nearly 15,000 notices as of Dec. 3, 2024. Canizales noted that 10,677 of these notices were violations and 61% — or 6,463 — had been paid.
