Winnipeg Police Service & Province of Manitoba
to Refund Some Road Construction Zone Tickets

 

 
The members of the Winnipeg Police Service believe everyone has the right to a safe workplace. That is true for the men and women working on road construction projects.  In support, a mobile photo unit was deployed to provide enforcement in road construction zones in June and July.

Between June 27 and July 1, 2014 a unit was deployed at a construction zone located in the 7000 block of southbound Kenaston Bvld, south of Scurfield Blvd. 2,574 tickets were issued under the offence title & citation: "Speeding, Section 95 (1)".

There was an administrative error and the correct offence title and citation is, "Speeding in a Designated Construction Zone, Section 95(1) (b.1)".

In the interest of fairness to motorists and transparency for all involved, the WPS recommended tickets be fully refunded due to the improper wording, as described above.

All mobile photo units have been inspected and are performing correctly.

The Province of Manitoba will be mailing letters to everyone affected and provide instructions for full refunds.

To get more information about whether their ticket is affected, Manitobans can call 204-945-3156 or visit Manitoba Summary Convictions Court at 373 Broadway in Winnipeg.

We will continue construction zone speeding enforcement.  The volume of tickets issued during the period in question illustrates there is plenty more work to be done – not only in enforcement, but in educating motorists about excessive speeds on our roadways.
