Niagara Parks Police Service: What We Do
We are a specialized Police Service dedicated to serving the needs of the tourism community in Niagara Parks. We are responsible for the management of vehicular and pedestrian flow of traffic, maintaining the peace, ensuring the safe return of lost property to its rightful owners, the discretionary enforcement, where required, of the Criminal Code of Canada and other federal and provincial statutes. Our members also patrol along the scenic Niagara Parkway which follows the 56 kilometer Niagara River corridor.
While we patrol and respond to all calls for service within Niagara Parks, the Niagara Regional Police Service retains primary jurisdiction. Our sworn members are appointed by the Regional Municipality of Niagara Police Services Board as Special Constables and are approved by the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services. We have a long history of co-operation with other law enforcement and emergency services in both Canada and the United States to best serve our visitors.
