The officers
of the Traffic Safety Bureau are responsible for many different
duties within the township. Officers in the bureau handle day
to day complaints and issues such as parking, speeding and other
moving violations, view obstructions, work zones and roadway
hazards. To complete these duties the officers are trained and
educated in various technical fields such as crash investigation
and reconstruction, traffic engineering and specialized enforcement.
The bureau works closely with several agencies and offices to
ensure the safe transportation of persons, vehicles and property
through the township. Some of these include: Franklin Township
Board of Education Transportation Department, Somerset County
Traffic Safety Services, the New Jersey Department of Transportation
and the New Jersey Division of Highway Traffic Safety. Lastly
the Traffic Safety Bureau is responsible for supervising the
township's school crossing guards and tow services.
There are
several safety programs available to the public. The officers
in Traffic are able to perform child seat inspections, conduct
bicycle registrations and present traffic related safety talks.
Currently there are 3 officers assigned to the bureau, Sgt. Christopher J. Rokicki, Corporal Keith Hermann and Patrolman Michael Deutchman.
