🚸 Back to School Safety in Devon 🚸

As the school year begins, remember that Devon has both school zones and playground zones near school areas. Please keep an eye out for posted signs and slow down in these areas.

A few important reminders for drivers:

✔️ Only use accessible parking stalls if you have a valid permit
✔️ Keep crosswalks clear for children and families
✔️ Be mindful of driveways and residents in school neighbourhoods

Let’s work together to keep our students and community safe this school year!

Welcome to Devon!

Beautiful night to enjoy the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra!
