Have you thought about using public transit to get to work?
School? A concert? Sporting event or game?
Maybe you’ve thought about it, but aren’t really sure it’s safe or you wonder if there were to be a problem happen, if you would be able to get help?
There are safety features on the bus and SkyTrain as well at bus stops and SkyTrain stations, and to ensure everyone knows about them and how to use them, White Rock RCMP is hosting a public transit safety seminar on Thursday evening, Sept. 26, with a special presentation from Metro Vancouver Transit Police Officers.
There will be discussions and explanations on how to use transit safety features. Metro Vancouver Transit Police as well as local RCMP officers will be available to answer any questions you have, a White Rock RCMP release notes.
"While interacting with community members, we were asked to host a joint safety session with Metro Vancouver Transit Police in the evening, allowing commuters and students the opportunity to attend," said White Rock RCMP Const. Chantal Sears.
"We agree that this is a great opportunity to educate our residents, and we look forward to an engaging evening September 26."
The safety seminar will be held at the White Rock Community Centre, 15154 Russell Avenue, at 6:30 p.m.
The all-ages seminar is free to attend, no registration requirerd.
