School Zone Enforcement

The Spokane Police Department (SPD) has issued a reminder regarding the enforcement of school zones as the new academic year begins. Officers are focusing their efforts on areas surrounding Rogers High School, Longfellow Middle School, and Garry Middle School. The SPD Traffic Unit is actively conducting traffic stops to address violations, particularly speeding and the use of cell phones while driving. This initiative is crucial for safeguarding children as they travel to and from school. Community members are urged to comply with traffic regulations to contribute to a safer environment.

The enforcement underscores the importance of student safety and aims to prevent potential accidents. In addition to enforcement, the SPD emphasizes community awareness regarding traffic safety in school zones. Such measures are intended to foster a culture of safety and responsibility among drivers during school hours.
