LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – The Lincoln Police Department on Thursday announced a new game day enforcement project.

The project will take place during Husker football home games and focus on traffic safety and alcohol compliance, with an emphasis on driving under the influence.

The enforcement project will give officers grant-funded overtime paid for by the Nebraska Department of Transportation’s Highway Safety Office.
