Report a Traffic Concern

The Traffic Enforcement Unit (TEU) relies on information from residents to help identify and address traffic safety concerns throughout the community. Reports from the public help officers monitor trends, focus enforcement efforts and respond to emerging issues.

Residents are encouraged to report concerns such as:

  • Excessive speeding
  • Distracted or aggressive driving
  • Unsafe driving in school zones or residential neighbourhoods
  • Frequent traffic violations at specific intersections or locations

To help officers assess the concern, please include:
