Pedestrian Safety Reminders

Residents are reminded to practice the following tips to stay safe and stay aware while walking on or along Township roadways:

• Use Sidewalks: State law requires pedestrians to walk on sidewalks whenever available. If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic and stay as far to the left as possible.
• Stay Visible: Wear bright or reflective clothing, especially at night or during low-light conditions. Consider carrying a flashlight to increase your visibility and placing reflective collars on your pets.
• Stay Alert: Pedestrians should avoid distractions like texting or using headphones/earbuds. Keep your eyes and ears open to stay aware of your surroundings.
