The two day traffic blitz on January 18 and 19 known as Operations Crossroads resulted in 339 individuals charged with traffic violations at intersections across the Province. Police agencies and traffic enforcement officers across the Province were on the lookout for drivers and pedestrians violating traffic laws at intersections, including failing to yield to oncoming traffic or pedestrians, failing to stop at stop signs, running red lights and jaywalking.

Operation Crossroads was the third Province-wide coordinated traffic safety blitz in partnership with Police Services and SGI. During last month’s blitz, Operation Overdrive, 241 tickets in total were issued: including 25 impaired driving charges, were issued. A Provincial blitz will continue to be held each month, targeting a key traffic safety issue.
