‘Goal: Zero’ Enforcement Detail Planned In Wall Township

WALL, NJ — The Wall Township Police Department’s next “Goal: Zero” high-visibility enforcement detail is scheduled to take place on Thursday from 3 to 7 p.m.

The focus of this month’s campaign will be on roadways leading to shore towns, police said, with law enforcement focusing their efforts on Highway 35, Eighteenth Avenue and Lakewood Road.

The intent of this initiative is part of a broader effort to address the increase in traffic-related fatalities across New Jersey.

“Changing driving behavior and improving traffic safety culture are essential steps toward saving lives,” Wall Police said. “Law enforcement agencies throughout Monmouth County remain committed to reducing these tragic numbers and ensuring safer roads for all.”

As of May 29, 213 lives have been lost on New Jersey roadways in 2025, with seven of them in Monmouth County.

As a result of the 2024 enforcement details, officers in Monmouth County stopped 2,276 vehicles and issued 1,400 summonses, including 129 speeding violations, 41 suspended license violations, 76 careless driving violations and more.

There were also 16 arrests made, which included one DWI, police said.
