EVESHAM TOWNSHIP, N.J. — The Federal Aviation Administration has implemented a temporary ban on the operation of drones in certain areas of New Jersey, including a portion of Evesham Township, until January 17, 2025.

The restriction applies to a one-nautical-mile radius around coordinates 39º55’05″N and 74º52’04″W, covering the area near Sharp Road and Church Road. The FAA has not disclosed the reasons behind the restrictions, which are commonly issued for safety or security concerns.
