The Edmonton Police Service have kicked off their Traffic Enforcement Noice/Speed Offence Restrictions (TENSOR) program to catch speeders and noise makers during the summer.
The first day of the program was last Friday, which resulted in 27 speed violations, seven noise violations, and a few dozen other tickets ranging from driving in a bus lane to unsafe lane changes.
“Traffic issues, especially noise and speeding, continue to generate the bulk of complaints received by the Traffic Section from the general public,” Sgt. Kerry Bates of the EPS Traffic Safety Unit said in a statement Friday. “We certainly understand the public’s frustration with these issues and developed Project TENSOR as an ongoing initiative to address these concerns through enforcement and education.”
