The New Orleans Department of Public Works, acting on orders from the Mayor, have deactivated all school zone cameras for the summer.

School zone cameras were turned off Friday, May 26, by 4:45 p.m. and will be reactivated when the majority of schools resume in August.


Meanwhile, May 16, 2023, Mayor LaToya Cantrell signed an ordinance expanding school zone eligibility from grades K-7 to grades K-12.

This will allow for the installation of signage, designated crosswalks, striping and other traffic control devices at all elementary and secondary schools in the city.

DPW anticipates the full implementation of this new ordinance by the start of 2024-2025 academic year.
