A friendly reminder that school starts on Wednesday, September 7th and with that, the applicable 30km/h school zones will be in effect from Sept 7th, 2016 - June 30th, 2017.  Fines range from $196-253 with 3 demerit points attached to your drivers license and PLEASE!! stop for school buses when flashing their red stop signs and if they are flashing yellow, please don't speed past them.  I expect that the police will be out on the 1st day of school for the 2016-17 School Year so drive accordingly
