Increased Traffic Expected On Area Highways And Roads

Ontario Provincial Police are reminding motorists to share the road and drive safe as the end of the summer holiday approaches.

Sergeant Dave Rektor says OPP patrolled roads will be busy with an increase in traffic as families take last minute summer vacations and students move away to college and university.

He says motorists should be prepared before hitting the road.
