AI Contract Overview
The NYC Department of Transportation, in partnership with New York State legislators, has initiated a pilot program to enhance enforcement of truck weight limits on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE) and other locations across New York City through the deployment of weigh-in-motion (WIM) technology. This program, authorized by the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway Overweight Truck Bill (S2740B/A2316) signed into law in December 2021, enables the automated issuance of violations when trucks exceed legal weight limits, marking the first such direct enforcement system in the nation. The WIM system is integrated into NYC’s existing automated enforcement infrastructure, including speed and red-light cameras, with violations beginning on the Queens-bound roadway in November 2023 and on the Staten Island-bound roadway in June 2025. Following the program's success, legislation during the 2025 session expanded the use of automated weight enforcement to eleven additional locations within the city. This Request for Information (RFI) seeks responses from vendors interested in supporting the expansion of this enforcement technology. The RFI is issued through NYC’s PASSPort procurement portal, where interested parties must create an account and submit their responses by September 9, 2025, at noon. The solicitation emphasizes the importance of innovative solutions for weight enforcement and invites vendors to provide insights or proposals that could facilitate broader deployment across New York City’s transportation infrastructure. The contract is projected to be valued between five and fifteen million dollars, with the primary point of contact being Nicomedis Horton at NYC DOT. Interested vendors can access the full RFI details via the PASSPort portal using the specified EPIN.

Full Description
The NYC DOT in collaboration with New York State Legislators introduced the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE) Overweight Truck Bill (S2740B/A2316). The new law amended the Vehicle and Traffic Law (VTL), authorizing a pilot program along I-278 in Kings County (Brooklyn) allowing for the installation of state-of-the-art, weigh-in-motion technology to issue violations electronically when trucks exceed the existing legal weight limits. This would establish the first-in-nation direct automated enforcement of truck weight limit program.
This legislation allows for a WIM system to be designed and implemented by NYC DOT within its existing Automated Enforcement Structure, including enforcement using speed cameras and red-light cameras. The bill was signed by Governor Kathy Hochul on December 22, 2021. Under this state authority, violations began to be issued using WIM system for the Queens bound roadway in November of 2023 and Staten Island bound roadway in June of 2025.
This program was a result of the identified need for increased enforcement of truck weight limits on infrastructure, particularly the BQE between Atlantic Avenue and Sands Street. Given the success of the BQE program, during the 2025 legislative session, New York State authorized the expansion of the use of weigh-in-motion automated enforcement to additional locations across New York State, including eleven locations within the five boroughs.
