The Estevan Police Service will be hosting a Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) blitz on Thursday, July 18, 2019 and Friday, July 19, 2019 in the Estevan area.

Police from around Saskatchewan will be working alongside partner agencies to identify traffic violations and take enforcement action. This two-day initiative will take place at various locations around Estevan.

Enforcement activities will focus on offenses related to speeding, distracted driving, seatbelt use, unlicensed drivers and commercial vehicle standards. As usual, impaired driving enforcement will be a top priority.

STEP is a multi-agency task force dedicated to improving traffic safety across Saskatchewan. Members include municipal police agencies, the RCMP, Saskatchewan Highway Patrol (SHP), Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Police, and representatives from SGI and the Ministries of Justice and Finance.

For more information on the enforcement blitz, please contact D/Chief Murray Cowan at 306-634-4767 or Tyler McMurchy, Manager of Media Relations, SGI, at 306-751-1837 or tmcmurchy@sgi.sk.ca.
