Cherry Hill Police Department Communications/911
The
Cherry Hill Police Department recently opened a brand new State-of-the-Art Communications
Center. This center is staffed by 12 Full Time Dispatchers and Call-takers as
well as Police Officers. The Communications Center is the hub of a new 800 Mhz
Digital Radio System that was recently installed throughout the Township. This
new system replaces one that is over 15 years old. The Communications Center
handles over 125,000 calls each year and is responsible for dispatching Police
Units throughout our community. The Communications Center also acts as our own
911 answer point. When a resident of Cherry Hill calls 911, they are connected
directly with the Cherry Hill Police Department. This provides a significant
advantage in response time to the caller.
