#b#Maple Avenue Speed Limit Reduction#/b#

Because of increased traffic and pedestrian activity, the speed limit of Maple Avenue has been reduced to 25 miles per hour. The change was made following review and analysis by the township police department and engineer’s office.

New speed limit signs have been erected in the area to reflect the speed limit change, and the Plainsboro police will conduct a month-long educational enforcement awareness campaign along Maple Avenue. For more information contact the Plainsboro Police Traffic Safety Bureau at 609-799-2333.
