Bicycle Unit

Burlington Township Police Department’s Bicycle Unit is used to supplement traditional patrol functions and to enhance police-community relations. The use of bicycles enables the officers to have more personal contact with the public, and allows the officers to reach areas inaccessible by other vehicles. The Bicycle Patrol increases police presence and response capabilities in such locations as at sporting events.

The Bicycle Unit is currently staffed by 9 patrol officers and supervised by a patrol Sergeant. In addition to supplementing police patrols, the unit conducts bicycle safety presentations and bicycle registrations. For more information contact Sgt. Richard Sullivan.
