The Lincoln Police Department is working with the Nebraska State Patrol in an “O” Street Traffic Enforcement Detail.
The goal is to conduct high visibility traffic enforcement within the city limits of Lincoln in an effort to reduce the number of motor vehicle accidents and to promote safe and responsible driving behavior. The effort will have an emphasis on “O” Street between 17th and 98th. The special enforcement will run in the evenings starting in March and running through August, 2022.
The Nebraska Department of Transportation – Highway Safety Office is providing overtime funding for the extra enforcement. It is the hope of LPD that by raising awareness, along with added enforcement, they can help reduce the number of traffic crashes resulting in injury or death in 2022 as compared to 2021.
