The City of Doral has been diligently implementing several interdepartmental efforts in order to proactively ensure a seamless and safe return to school for our students, parents, teachers and administrators. The Doral Police Department (DPD) is dedicated to ensuring safety through increased patrol and visibility. They are also working collaboratively with school staff and local municipalities to ensure the safety of the entire school community, including traffic enforcement. DPD will have an increase in police presence in and around school sites and strongly urges all drivers to be patient and follow all traffic laws, including speeding and no texting and driving laws. DPD is also conducting multiple effective emergency preparedness drills in providing continuous Mass Casualty Attack (MCAT) Drill training and exercises to keep its officers trained in the most current tactics and response time to MCAT incidents. In addition to the efforts, DPD officers continue to receive specialized training in Crisis Intervention Training (CIT), De-escalation and Threat Assessment. With mobility also as a top priority, the Public Works Department (PWD) is working closely with Miami-Dade County and project contractors to minimize inconveniences to the traffic and the general public. They are ensuring that back-to-school is taken into consideration and that activities that will have a minimum impact to the vehicular traffic commence first with these projects. Please see below list and map for the current ongoing projects along the public right-of-way:
Together with the leadership from the Mayor and City Council, we look forward to a collaborative and successful back-to-school operation. Enjoy special back to school messages from the Mayor and City Council:
