State Highway Safety
Along with other area agencies, we work in conjunction with the Governor’s Highway Safety Program to improve traffic safety. The GHSP supplies money for officers with well-known campaigns such as Click It or Ticket, DUI Task Force, Aggressive Driving and other various activities.
Speed Monitoring
HPD has a few speed monitoring devices around Hardwick. The devices show you the speed you are going and also collect data such as how many cars go by and at what speed. That data is used to determine what areas have speeding problems.
Bike Patrol
Hardwick Police Department is dedicated to the safety of our community. The Bike Patrol maintains safety on our local roads and Hardwick’s many walking and bike trails.
