Captain Juan Villanueva, commanding officer of Troop D, Springfield, announces that Troop D will participate in Labor Day weekend enforcement operations. 

These operations' objective is to reduce the number and severity of traffic crashes. 

Throughout the holiday weekend, troopers within Troop D and throughout the state will be participating in Operation C.A.R.E. (Crash Awareness & Reduction Effort). This means every available officer will be on the road enforcing traffic laws and assisting motorists.

In addition to Operation C.A.R.E., Troop D will be participating in the statewide special enforcement operation during peak travel periods on Friday, September 1, and Monday, September 4. 

During this operation, troopers will be assigned to 20-mile sections of Interstate 44. Enforcement efforts on secondary roads will be conducted during the same timeframe within Troop D. 

This year’s Labor Day weekend counting period is from 6 p.m. on Friday, September 1, 2017, to 11:59 p.m. on Monday, September 4, 2017.
