Police Department Adds New Highway Safety Email Address
Towamencin Township’s Police Department is unveiling a new way to contact our Highway Safety Unit to report traffic concerns through a dedicated email. Traffic@towamencinpd.org is the email to use to directly report traffic issues to our Highway Safety Unit (HSU). This email should be used to report traffic issues such as, but not limited to:
- Speeding concerns at a specific location

- Commercial vehicles on restricted roadways
- Requests for traffic studies
This information will be used by our HSU to target their enforcement activities to address the concerns of residents.

Any issue requiring IMMEDIATE police attention! For these situations, call 9-1-1 immediately!
