WORCESTER – The Massachusetts State Police announced there will be a sobriety checkpoint in Worcester County from Friday, June 27, to Saturday, June 28.
Police are required to announce the date and county in which sobriety checkpoints will appear. The checkpoint will appear on a public way within Worcester County.
According to the state police, the purpose of sobriety checkpoints is “to further educate the motoring public and strengthen the public’s awareness of the need to detect and remove motorists who operate under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs from our roadways.”
A grant from the Office of Grants and Research, a division of the Massachusetts Executive Office of Public Safety, funded the operation.
