🚧 What has 1000 Islands Safety been up to this week? 🚧

It’s been another week out in the Traffic Control world! From lane closures and construction zones to keeping crews and motorists safe on the roadway, our team has been hard at work across the region. πŸ’ͺ🚦

Early mornings, long days, and a whole lot of pylons β€” all to help keep traffic moving safely and workers protected.

⚠️ Traffic Safety Tip:
When approaching a construction zone, slow down and give yourself extra stopping distance. Workers are only a few feet away from live traffic β€” your attention matters! πŸ‘·β€β™‚οΈπŸš§

We appreciate our hardworking crew for another safe week on the road! πŸ™Œ

⚠️Fire Safety Notice: Lithium-Ion Batteries⚠️

We would like to remind residents about the growing risks associated with lithium-ion batteries. These batteries are commonly found in:

πŸ”‹ Cell phones
πŸ”‹ Power tools
πŸ”‹ E-bikes & scooters
πŸ”‹ Laptops & tablets
πŸ”‹ Portable chargers
πŸ”‹ Children’s toys and RC devices

While generally safe, damaged, overheated, or improperly charged lithium-ion batteries can fail violently and cause intense fires that spread quickly and are difficult to extinguish.

🚨Safety Tips:
β€’ Only use approved chargers designed for your device
β€’ Never charge batteries unattended or overnight
β€’ Keep batteries away from heat sources and direct sunlight
β€’ Stop using batteries that are swollen, damaged, leaking, or overheating
β€’ Avoid storing batteries near exits or combustible materials
β€’ Do not throw lithium batteries in household garbage
β€’ Install working smoke alarms in your home and cottage

⚠️Warning signs of battery failure:
β€’ Excessive heat
β€’ Swelling or bulging
β€’ Strange odours
β€’ Hissing or popping sounds
β€’ Smoke or sparks

If a lithium-ion battery begins smoking or catches fire:
➑️ Evacuate immediately
➑️ Call 911
➑️ Do not attempt to handle a large battery fire yourself

Stay safe, South Dundas!
