A security drill at Navel Weapons Station Earle on Friday could slow traffic in the Colts Neck area, according to base officials.
The exercise tests how the base responds to threats, but is not in response to a specific threat. These drills are regularly scheduled, and drivers may witness increased security in the area.
People traveling near the base on Route 34 in Colts Neck or Route 36 in Leonardo could experience slower traffic at times.
