Patrol Officers with the Columbia Borough Police Department conducted multiple traffic enforcement details from November 25, 2019 to December 5, 2019.  The details, which included speed enforcement and roving patrols, resulted in 65 motorists stopped and 39 citations issued.  The offenses included:  adult seat belt violations, speeding, obedience to traffic control device violations, suspended license violations, as well as other infractions.

The partnership is comprised of municipal police departments, the Pennsylvania State Police, PennDOT, the US Department of Transportation and community groups and organizations.

Grant funding was provided to the Columbia Borough Police Department through the Buckle Up PA project to pay officer salaries for the current enforcement period.
