Okotoks RCMP are reminding residents to be cautious of school zones as students return today after the long weekend.

As traffic and pedestrian activity will increase in school areas again, police are cautioning motorists to slow down and be alert, especially during peak drop-off and pick-up times.

School zones are 30 km/h and in effect on school days from 7:30 a.m.- 5:00 p.m.

In Okotoks, school zones and playground zones are not harmonized.
