Parsons Opens New Motor Vehicle Inspection Station in Freehold

    TRENTON, N.J.--May 25, 2000--Parsons Infrastructure and Technology Group has completed the construction of a new motor vehicle inspection facility at 801 Okerson Road, located near the intersection of Route 33 and Halls Mill Road, Freehold. The facility is scheduled to open May 30.
    The state-of-the-art station features five light-duty inspection lanes and one heavy-duty inspection lane, four heated and air conditioned customer waiting booths, and a large parking area. For those arriving for re-inspection, there is a designated re-inspection area at the rear of the facility.
    "We've built this six-lane facility and located it in Freehold in recognition of the rapid population growth in that area of New Jersey," said Larry Sherwood, General Manager, Parsons. "We're about to open another state-of-the-art facility in that region shortly; it's located at 1145 State Highway 70 in Lakewood."
    The new facilities will replace the existing facilities in Freehold and Toms River. The "old" facilities will remain open for a reasonable period of time during the transition and will continue to take inspections by appointment only. No appointments are necessary at either of the new facilities.
    Hours of operation for the new Freehold facility are 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday with late hours on Monday until 7:30 p.m. The facility is also open from 6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturdays.
    Consumers can also call, toll-free, 1-888-NJ MOTOR (those outside the state can call 609-895-6886), with questions about the new inspection program, or visit www.cleanairnj.org. Questions regarding licensing, registration, title, etc., should still be directed to the current NJ motor vehicle services' toll free number, 1-888-486-3339.
