While the drill is not in response to any threats, the press release said it is a "regularly-scheduled exercise." The impact of the drills should be minimized but drivers near the base may see increased security and police presence during that time. That includes the Mainside on Route 34 in Colts Neck and the Waterfront near Route 36 in Leonardo where traffic could be slowed in the area.
People in the area should also not be surprised to see "security vehicle traffic" near Normandy Rd.
