Mayor Brown Prioritizes Back-to-School Safety - 09 Sep 26
Brampton · September 09, 2026
have a great first day. Um, we wanted to
outline some themes today about what the
city of Brampton is doing
uh to ensure road safety. Um, it's an
exciting time for students and families,
but it's also an important reminder for
every driver in our city, slow down,
stay alert, and put safety first. When
you enter a school zone, take your foot
off the gas, put your phone away, watch
for children crossing the street, and
respect our crossing guards. I'm joined
by one of them here today, uh Cheryl.
Um, when a school bus stops, it's
um red lights start flashing and the
stop arm comes out, you stop. There is
nowhere you need to be worth putting a
child's safety at risk. As students
prepare to travel to and from school, I
would like to remind parents that
e-scooter and e-bike riders must be 16
years of age or older and only regulated
e-scooters and e-bikes are permitted in
Brampton.
You know, when it comes to road safety,
this is something our council takes very
seriously and I'm joined by Councillor
Santos, Councillor Keenan, Councillor
Santos, and Councillor Medeiros.
