Squamish RCMP issued 55 violation tickets for speeding in town in three days.

From December 31 to January 3, Squamish RCMP did an enhanced road safety initiative, with a focus on the Motor Vehicle Act.

On December 31, Squamish RCMP had extra resources working to keep the community safe, said Sgt. Sascha Banks of Squamish RCMP.

Squamish RCMP checked local bars to ensure bars and patrons were compliant with provincial health orders.
