Traffic enforcement program results in numerous infractions
The results are in from a traffic enforcement program run in the Battlefords from October 21-23.
Rosetown and Melfort Traffic Services Section ran the program, as part of the Central Traffic Services Section. Made of units from across Saskatchewan, the CTSS includes numerous municipal policing agencies and looks to enhance traffic safety in communities without their own units and supplement those areas. Staff Sgt. Jason Teniuk said these programs occur randomly throughout the year and it wasn’t anything to do with the local detachment, saying their detachment resourcing stays the same.
“It’s just an opportunity to support our local CTSS unit,” he said. “We do have a local unit in town here, made up of considerable less members than what would have been involved in this.”
“There’s an enforcement aspect, an educational aspect and it comes across in various different ways.”
