I am noticing a lot of speeding (above 25 mph) in other streets as well, e.g. Harrison, Hamilton, Franklin. Perhaps something could be done? A few tickets and am sure people will adjust their speed. Also, on Harrison some are trucks. Thanks

Thank you for bringing your concerns to the attention of the Princeton Police Department's Traffic Safety Bureau. I have added Grover Avenue to the list of roads requiring extra selective enforcement based upon your report of speeding in the area. The list is disseminated to our Patrol Bureau via the Traffic Safety Bureau's Monthly Report and therefore will be included in September's report. As far as your request for additional traffic engineering controls in the form of speed humps are concerned, I have forwarded the same to our Municipal Engineer. - Sgt Thomas R. Murray III

Police-Sgt. T. Murray Traffic Safety assigned this issue to Engineering - D.Stockton, Municipal Engineer

This alert is being closed as it has been forwarded to the Princeton Municipal Engineering Department.

Thank you very much for your prompt attention to this matter.

Thank you for taking care of this issue. I live on Grover avenue and noticed that speeding is getting more and more frequent over the last few months.

I also believe that Grover Ave is a bike boulevard. Young kids enjoy riding the short downhill but it's quite dangerous when cars are anxious to pass. Speed humps and some signage on the road would help a lot making this road safer (see Cleveland Ln).

Sgt. Murray - what is “extra selective enforcement”? Many seems to be discounting the potential of enforcement to change driving behavior in favor of humps but we should be able to understand the specific steps you have taken to be able to have an informed view of whether enforcement can still be improved and why the enforcement steps taken so far appear to be ineffective.

Yes it can be a very serious issue. A few months ago I called the police because huge construction trucks used to use Grover avenue and drive at exceedingly high speeds. It was very scary.

Can anything be done to slow down cars on Grover (stop sign near Clearview maybe, raised crosswalk near the footpath to Linwood)?
I can see many complaints but as far as I can tell nothing has been done.
The corner of Grover and Clearview is seriously dangerous in the morning as cars take very quick turn on their way to school and to bypass the red light on Franklin.
Crossing Grover Ave near the stream onto Linwood is also quite dangerous as cars drive way over 25mph to bypass the three red lights on Harrison. It would be much appreciated if the town could seriously look into it before traffic increases with some of the new constructions nearing completion.

The Traffic Safety Bureau will be placing equipment on Grover Ave to see vehicle speed. I will report this data in several weeks.

Hello, do you have any timeline for the installation of this equipment. The issue was first brought up 1.5 years ago.
