With children and parents on the streets in search of loot, everyone – including drivers – needs to be alert and follow the rules of the road.

TREAT ACCESSIBLY
The City of Vaughan is dedicated to fostering an inclusive community where people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds can thrive – including on Halloween. As a reflection of this commitment to advancing accessibility, Vaughan Council recently endorsed the Treat Accessibly initiative.

More information on this initiative is available in the City’s News Release.
