FLAGS FLY AT HALF-MAST FOR POLICE & PEACE OFFICERS’ NATIONAL MEMORIAL DAY
September 25, 2015 - 7:40am
Police and Peace Officers’ National Memorial Day is Sunday, September 27, 2015. In recognition, flags at all City of Saskatoon facilities will fly at half-mast for the day.
Police and Peace Officers’ National Memorial Day is recognized every year in Canada on the last Sunday in September. The day pays tribute to the hard work, dedication and sacrifice police and peace officers have made toward the safety of Canadians.
Flags are flown at half-mast to honour police and peace officers killed in the line of duty. Memorial services will also take place in communities across the country.

TEMPORARY DISRUPTION TO TRANSIT PHONE & GO, ONLINE SERVICES
September 25, 2015 - 7:39am
Saskatoon Transit Phone & Go will be unavailable this Sunday evening (Sept. 27) due to planned maintenance. Additionally, some of the City’s online services at transit.saskatoon.ca and saskatoon.ca may experience temporary disruptions.
To minimize the impact to users of Transit Phone & Go and online services, this maintenance has been scheduled for between 6 p.m. and midnight. During this time, Transit riders are invited to use an alternate trip planning tool such as Google Transit or the Transit App on mobile.
The City strives to maintain Phone & Go and online services 24/7 but, on occasion, maintenance work necessitates interruptions. The City thanks residents for their patience.
