State police officials on Tuesday announced a crackdown on speeders in construction zones along Interstate 295 in Camden and Gloucester counties.

Authorities said 107 crashes with injuries occurred in the construction area between August, when work began, and Feb. 28. That was compared to 46 such accidents in the same area in the year-before period.

Officials noted the speed limit currently is 45 mph between mileposts 24 and 32. They said the crackdown will include the use of "laser-speed monitoring" and unmarked patrol cars.
