Tis the season for construction and that means the speed cameras are back on New York roads.

29 cameras are busting speeders on 20 roads across the Empire State this week. 5 of those cameras are in Central New York.

The radar was installed as part of legislation, signed into law in in New York a few years ago.

The cameras move around the state every week to different construction zones in an effort to get drivers to take their foot off the gas and keep workers safe.
