Transit police officers perform patrol duties, such as traffic control, enforcement, taking accident and crime reports and making arrests. The Airport Division monitors the Buffalo Niagara International Airport, Niagara Falls International Airport and related NFTA properties. The primary requirement of the division is rapid response to the terminal's Security Checkpoint in the event of a security breach. Officers routinely respond to the Checkpoint because of weapons, drugs, and other hazardous items.
