As part of our newly introduced “Hawthorne Safe Initiative”, our Traffic Bureau has been tasked with the “Safe Traffic Initiative” portion (the others are Parks, Schools, Businesses, and Neighborhoods).
Our goal is to address traffic concerns throughout the city, taking a high visibility enforcement and education approach. Our mission: “Reduce traffic accidents through enforcement and education.”
Thank you!
