The Oro Valley Police Department is stepping up its efforts to keep our roads safe this November. As part of their “High Visibility Enforcement” (HiVE) initiative, they’ll be focusing on Oracle Road and Magee Road. The goal? To raise awareness and cut down on accidents caused by speeding, not paying attention, tailgating, and failing to yield.

Oro Valley is truly a community that loves to stay involved. This summer, we saw over 700 people attend meetings, showcasing the town’s vibrant spirit of engagement. Such enthusiasm is a big reason why Oro Valley is celebrated as an award-winning community. Often, when residents are passionate about an issue, they dive into public meetings for the first time. It could be a local board, a commission meeting, or even a Town Council gathering. For newcomers, this experience can sometimes feel a bit overwhelming.

The Oro Valley Police Department (OVPD) has some great news for our community! Thanks to a generous $30,000 grant from the Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, they’ll be beefing up their efforts to keep our roads safe from impaired drivers. This funding, specifically for overtime, is for the 2019 fiscal year and will help support the OVPD’s work with the Southern Arizona DUI Task Force.
