Observances
During Rail Safety Week, Operation Lifesaver Canada (OLC) work in partnership with the rail industry, government, police, unions, and many public organizations and community groups to highlight safe practices around railway property.
OLC is excited to be marking the 20th anniversary of Rail Safety Week (RSW) this year (September 18-24, 2023). As OLC’s key annual campaign, RSW has been critical to raising public awareness about rail safety and reminding Canadians that taking risks near tracks and trains could cost them a limb, or their life.
