Cape Breton Regional Police are opening the province’s first Collision Reporting Centre at Police Headquarters in Sydney.
The Reporting Centre is a partnership with Ontario-based Accident Support Services International and is paid for by the insurance industry.
Regional Police say drivers involved in minor collisions that don’t involve any criminal activity, hazardous materials or serious injuries will be directed to self-report the collision at the Collision Reporting Centre.
The Collision Reporting Centre will operate Monday to Friday between 8:00 in the morning and 4:00 in the afternoon in the main lobby of Police Headquarters on Grand Lake Road.
A grand opening for the Centre is taking place at 11:00 on Wednesday morning.
