Local police are urging all motorists to ‘Go Slow’ and take it easy on the roads with the end of school holidays traffic also expected to increase travel times over the public holiday weekend.

Operation ‘Go Slow,’ starts at midnight on Thursday and runs until midnight on Tuesday. Double demerits are in force for all speeding, mobile phones, seat belt, and motorcycle-helmet offences.

Meanwhile Oxley police have told The Leader they’ll be in touch with licensed venues over the Anzac Day period to ensure patrons remain respectful to the commemorations.
