I would like to remind everyone that children will be out at bus stops and walking to school next week for the beginning of school. 

Peel Regional Police have advised that members of the Neighbourhood Policing Unit (NPU) will be returning to Peel schools.  These officers, in addition to front line Uniform Patrol officers, Divisional Traffic Units and Road Safety Services officers, will be out in full force in school zones and on school bus routes, to deal with traffic violations. 

Peel Regional Police urges motorists to drive safely, responsibly and free from distractions at all times and to be extra vigilant when travelling through residential areas, in school zones and along bus routes.

Below is information for students who may be traveling to school in the areas listed below:

•  Path to Willowbank Trail: 
  The new path to Willowbank Trail is still in use, and will continue to be maintained  for the rest of this academic year.  Please encourage students to use this path to safely reach Willowbank Trail and neighbouring streets. 
• Construction at Tomken Road at 401 Bridge:  The MTO is working under the 401 bridge while we continue to tunnel in the area.  Between 5 a.m. and 11 p.m., there will be at least one lane in each direction.  Between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m., traffic may be reduced to a single lane, controlled by a flagperson.
• Cawthra Road from Burnhamthorpe Road to Eastgate Parkway:  Construction continues along this stretch of Cawthra Road.  Please suggest students, parents and staff build extra travel time into their journey if they use this route, in order to get to school on time.
• Dixie Road: Golden Orchard Drive to Burnhamthorpe Road:  Paving works reduce the Dixie Road from three lanes to two lanes in each direction.  After 7 p.m., traffic may be reduced to a single lane in each direction.

Please note that Glenforest Secondary School Pool will be closed for the following dates due to pool pump and  filter replacement work.

I would like to express my deepest sympathies to the family, friends and loved ones of former Mississauga Mayor, Ron Searle. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this somber and difficult time.
