RCMP are cracking down on drivers in the area of the new transit bus depot. Police have received several complaints the past few days about near accidents with pedestrians in the bus zone between 30th and 31st streets by Cenotaph Park. That section is for buses only, and is clearly marked. RCMP spokesman Gord Molendyk says an officer wrote eight violations over 90 minutes this morning in that area for disobeying a traffic control device, each costing $121. "The officer said he could have written double that, as many cars drove past while he was writing up tickets to drivers he stopped. Traffic enforcement will continue in the area to bring awareness to the problem before we have an injury to pedestrian."
