Local Law 12 of 2011 requires the Department of Transportation (“DOT”) to develop an interagency plan to improve roadway safety and reduce incidents of traffic injuries and fatalities.

The proposed legislation would require DOT to specifically consider placement of traffic enforcement agents in certain areas in developing suggestions as part of the interagency roadway safety plan.
