Free Safety Signs Available For Cranford Residents

CRANFORD, NJ — The Cranford Police Department and Township of Cranford are offering residents free displays to encourage safety on the streets.

"SLOW DOWN IN OUR TOWN" signs to be placed in the front yards of homes are available through an application in the Cranford Police Department App on Google Play or iPhone. There are only 200 signs that are able to be claimed.

A few years ago, the police distributed around 200 signs. After a strong renewed demand from the public, the township brought back the program.

Captain Eugene Perotta said this program follows new speed signs and other efforts around the neighborhood to promote safety. This includes the approval of multiple new flashing crosswalk systems at the Sept. 16 Township Committee.
