1. East Windsor Township Was Awarded $2 Million Federal Grant toward Construction of "Probasco Road Freight Bypass." Mayor Janice S. Mironov and Council Members actively advocated for the project funding, which was successfully secured with the support of Congressman Herb Conway Jr. The Probasco Road Freight Bypass would provide for a direct ramp connection to NJ Route 133 from Wyckoff Mills Road, thereby enabling truck traffic to travel to the New Jersey Turnpike and other major roadway networks without having to utilize local area roadways. This alternative connection would help enhance safety, facilitate area travel and support economic development in East Windsor.
2. East Windsor Township Was Awarded $300,000 Federal Grant for Upgraded 9-1-1 Network Technology. Mayor Janice S. Mironov and Council Members advocated for the 9-1-1 upgraded technology funding, which was successfully secured with the support of U.S. Senator Cory Booker and U.S. Senator Andy Kim. The $300,000 federal grant funding award will be used to replace existing 9-1-1 terminals with Next Generation-compatible equipment and technology, enhancing the Township emergency response capability and keeping the Township current with State requirements and County updates. The new system, which is faster and more resilient, will improve the Township dispatch center’s ability to help manage call overload and effectively respond to natural disasters.
