One person was arrested after an on-the-spot breath test revealed they were driving above the legal alcohol limit.

The identity of the driver was not made public.

Police say they interviewed a total of 444 drivers during the checks. Two additional roadside sobriety tests were given, but no other arrests were made.

Four drivers also received traffic enforcement citations.
