As part of ongoing safety improvements, the township will be expanding the use of traffic enforcement technology, the police chief said.

One key initiative is the implementation of “Bus Control” — a system that installs cameras on school buses to monitor and record vehicles that fail to yield to stopped buses. This measure aims to increase safety for students and hold violators accountable.
