From the Vermont Standard

Sheriff deputies return to Bridgewater on Sept. 1
The Windsor County Sheriff’s Office will resume daily traffic patrols in Bridgewater and Bridgewater Corners. “We’re looking to run the program for a couple of months and see how it goes, and see what the numbers are,” Sheriff Michael Chamberlain said. According to Chamberlain, the new contract will be similar to a previous expired contract that included 84 hours of law enforcement coverage, including traffic patrols, each week. But the new contract will include four hours of daily coverage seven days a week.

Well was fun while it lasted.

I made it from the LT Brewery to the Gondi in record time a couple weeks ago with 2 guys following me on bikes.

That is a great driving road.......

So they're only going to be there for 28 hours a week instead of 84 hours?

Plymouth Sheriff was hanging out in Tyson today. Revenue must be down so they are switching up locations.

what a shitty job that must be... even if you only had to do that one day per week. Writing 10 hours of speeding tickets must get incredibly blah...

[SnoBrdr]

Used to be a great job till it was ruined by the liberal weiners. Never knew what you'd do 1 minute to next.

Only a cop would say that .. . Nothing great about writing speeding tickets in 25 mph zone . . Boo on this

New contract starts September 1st

Mendon has been quiet, 91 in VT and MA has been very well patrolled recently.

If anyone is headed up to Burlington or further on 89, watch out. Could not believe how many State patrollers were out two weekends ago. One might suspect something caused a reduction in traffic and thus ticket revenue in VT the last year plus or something.
