Backflow Testing, Certification & Repair in Piscataway Township, NJ
Piscataway Township is one of Middlesex County’s most significant academic, research, and residential communities — a large township of approximately 57,000 residents that is home to Rutgers University’s Busch Campus and Livingston Campus (two of Rutgers’ four New Brunswick campuses), significant pharmaceutical and technology research facilities along the Route 1 corridor, and a diverse range of residential communities from established single-family neighborhoods to new transit-oriented developments. Piscataway’s identity is closely tied to Rutgers University’s research enterprise — the campus hosts RCSB Protein Data Bank, the Waksman Institute of Microbiology, the Center for Advanced Infrastructure and Transportation, and dozens of other nationally significant research facilities whose work shapes medicine, engineering, and science worldwide.
