Speed Cameras Hit School Zones | Roanoke News
Description
Blacksburg’s new speed cameras are going live near two schools — Gilbert Linkous Elementary and Blacksburg Middle — with a clear mission: keep kids safe. Four cameras total, activated August 10th with a 30-day warning period (no fines, just alerts for speeding 11+ mph over). After September 9th, the same violations trigger $100 civil citations. Police Chief John Clair stresses this isn’t about fines — it’s about slowing down for students, families, and everyone in the community. Watch for signs, ease up, and make a real difference on the road.
