Police thank motorist who changed travel plans last week

Last Tuesday was a busy one for police.  Local police responded to 24 collisions in the West Parry Sound area while Southern Georgian Bay OPP officers were called to 25 crashes and 14 calls for service for vehicles stuck on local roadways.  Emergency Services were tasked with numerous calls for all types of calls for service but mostly roadway related while Provincial, County, and Municipal snow clearing road crews tried their best to keep roadways clear before being pulled off the roads as a safety precaution.  Members of the Southern Georgian Bay Detachment of the OPP wish to thank those motorists last week who changed their travel plans to let the blizzard that pounded local roadways pass.
