Deputy Chief Ruiz Responds to Councilman’s Concern about High Street and Buckingham Avenue

PERTH AMBOY – At the July 9, 2012 Council Caucus meeting, Councilman Fernando Gonzalez stated people near the Harbortown entrance are concerned about speeding cars. Some parked cars have been hit.

Deputy Police Chief Benjamin Ruiz stated, “Radars have been placed in that area and enforcement is limited. 4-way stops are not viable and state law determines where stop signs are placed. Every intersection on High Street has been looked at. Many of the homes on High Street are multi-family. We have regulations that must be followed as far as stop signs are concerned.”

Councilman Fernando Gonzalez was also concerned about how many accidents have occurred on the intersections of High Street and Buckingham Avenue.
