Town to solicit bids for safety upgrades after resident complaints about speed on Route 22
Summary
Following resident reports of speeding on State Route 22, the board voted to solicit bids for safety and signal upgrades at six intersections on Route 22 and a flashing school‑zone device on Route 119; Kiski Barracks officers confirmed patrol presence on Route 22.
Salem Township supervisors voted unanimously on Nov. 20 to advertise for bids to upgrade traffic signals at six intersections on State Route 22 and to add one flashing school‑zone device on State Route 119. The action responds to resident complaints about speeding on Route 22 that were raised during the meeting.
Corporal Parsley of the Kiski Barracks, introduced at the meeting, said area crime is down and noted a trooper ‘‘spends a lot of time patrolling Rt 22’’ where speeding complaints have been reported. The board authorized the solicitation of bids for signal safety modifications; the motion was made by Kerry Jobe and seconded by Ken Trumbetta and passed unanimously.
