By Staff report

The Indiana Department of Transportation is going to implement the worksite speed control pilot program, known as Safe Zones, on I-74 in Decatur and Shelby counties.

Starting on Wednesday, April 1, Safe Zones enforcement will begin on I-74 in the construction zone between mile markers 113 and 134.

The program is currently active and will continue in the Clear Path I-465/I-69 work zone on the northeast side of Indianapolis, on I-70 in Hancock County and on I-65 in Jasper County.

Once active, vehicles traveling 11 mph or more over the posted speed limit will receive a violation notice via mail. The first violation results in a zero-fine warning, followed by a $75 civil fine for second violations, and a $150 civil fine for third and subsequent violations.
