Traffic Counters (Tube or Camera setups) are being placed by the NYSDOT on various streets. NYSDOT and DPW have recently received inquiries regarding the cameras being setup by the Department’s traffic count contractor. In response to recent questions, please see the below information:Cameras should have a label with the name “NDS” (National Data Services) on them and should look like the pictures below.
