To promote more walking and biking in the community and physical activity in general, Stafford Township hopes soon to see improved pedestrian and bike routes near local schools, including new sidewalks and striping.

“To date, the township and Stafford Township School District have worked with the Greater Mercer TMA to complete two travel plans, one for the McKinley Avenue campus schools and one for Ocean Acres Elementary School,” Township Administrator Matthew von der Hayden explained.
