Forest Sciences Centre, 2424 Main Mall
Landscape Architecture Annex, 2371 Main Mall
H.R. MacMillan Building, 2357 Main Mall
Totem Park Residence - q’ələχən house, 2525 West Mall

During this time drivers should expect road closures on Agronomy Road between West Mall and Health Sciences Mall. There will be pedestrian restrictions along Agronomy Road and on Main Mall near the H.R. MacMillan Building. Follow the link for a map of these closures.

CAUTION: During the exercise people near the buildings involved may expect to hear loud noises, including sirens from emergency vehicles. The exercise will include a number of volunteers who will be acting as bystanders and victims.

Due to the realistic nature of the exercise scenario volunteers are cautioned:
• Volunteers should expect to see firearms and to hear loud noises, including sirens from emergency vehicles and simulated gun fire
• Volunteers will be required to act as injured victims or bystanders and to cooperate with the RCMP emergency responders
