Buffalo Special Police

Patrol Division

Since January 2004, the Buffalo Special Police have been approached by most members of the City of Buffalo Common Council with requests for our patrol services on specific streets or neighborhoods during peak times of concern. In order to honor as many requests as possible, we constantly change our patrol routes, dates and times.

If you would like to see Buffalo Special Police officers walking a beat in your area, contact your Councilperson and voice your support for our mission. While we do not have the personnel to honor all commitments at this time, we work very closely with the Common Council to ensure that our resources are utilized to their best potential.

Please rest assured that every Buffalo Special Police officer walking in your neighborhood has successfully passed a rigorous training program, and is present to ensure your safety and to improve the quality of life in the City of Buffalo!
