3 to 5 Nov 2026New York City’s New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) has selected Verra Mobility to manage a substantially expanded automated traffic-enforcement programme covering red-light, speed, bus-lane and overweight-truck cameras.
Under the agreement, the city intends to grow the number of signalised intersections under red-light camera coverage from approximately 150 to 600. The five-year contract (with an option to renew) will cover design, installation, operation, maintenance and enforcement of the cameras across the five boroughs.
The programme includes new technology to address evolving challenges such as obscured or altered licence plates, and Verra Mobility’s responsibilities will extend to enforcement of weight-limits on the Brooklyn–Queens Expressway as well as bus-lane compliance.
Though the exact financial terms have not been publicly disclosed in full, earlier publicly reported contracts with the firm ran into several hundred millions of dollars for similar programmes.
The city emphasises that enforcement decisions remain with DOT staff rather than being fully automated and that the vendor will be compensated on a flat-rate basis rather than through a share of fines.
