Advisory
THIS WEEK -Pedestrian Safety, Road Closure, House Fire, Enhanced Enforcement
South Brunswick Police are stepping up pedestrian safety efforts as part of Spring Safety Initiative this week. Chief Raymond Hayducka said, “With most schools off and warmer weather there will be an increase in pedestrian traffic this week. Motorists need to be aware of safety rules including yielding to pedestrians in crosswalks.” South Brunswick had 10 pedestrians struck by cars in 2018. A State grant will allow for an extra 200 hours of police officer time focused on pedestrian safety enforcement.
Officers will be out this entire Spring Break week focused on the major roadways where pedestrian crossings occur including; Kingston Lane by the Library, Beekman Road by Veterans Park, Promenade Boulevard, Georges Road, and Kingston Lane. This enforcement effort will raise awareness and cut down on accidents.
The road is closed between the entrance to Target mall and the Tree Farm Road.
Firefighters arrived quickly and were able to contain the fire to the upstairs bedroom. Responding to the scene were all 3 South Brunswick Fire Companies (Monmouth Junction, Kingston and Kendall Park), as well as firefighters from Plainsboro, Jamesburg, & North Brunswick Co. #2. Ambulances from South Brunswick, Monroe and Plainsboro responded and there were no injuries. The fire is under investigation by the South Brunswick Township Fire Safety Bureau.
Deputy Chief Wert credited the quick response and actions by firefighters with limiting the fire damage to the residence.
While enforcement efforts take place throughout the township, these areas will receive additional focus.
