Rts. 2, 51, to receive extra police patrols

2/2/2007

State Rts. 2 and 51 in Oregon will be the focus of increased traffic enforcement this weekend, police said.

Extra police crews will patrol those routes and adjacent roadways looking for impaired drivers, and speed and seat belt violations, police said.

The officers' overtime is funded by a grant through the state's Office of Highway Safety.
