Victoria, BC – Traffic will be disrupted, and temporary CCTV cameras will be deployed as we work to keep everyone safe during the annual Christmas Truck Light Show Parade on Saturday, December 7.
The annual Christmas Truck Light Show Parade features 80 decorated commercial trucks. Expect traffic to be disrupted starting at 5:00 p.m. as the trucks leave Ogden Point and travel through James Bay, Oak Bay, downtown Victoria and then proceed to the Trans-Canada Highway to Langford and Colwood. Traffic disruptions and rolling road closures in those areas are expected to last until 7:00 p.m.
A map of the parade route is below:

Traffic delays and disruptions are expected to occur during the parade and attendees should plan to arrive early. Our officers and Reserve Constables, alongside officers from neighbouring police departments, will be present to assist with road closures and to help keep everyone attending the event safe.
Temporary, Monitored CCTV Cameras Deployed
We will be deploying our temporary, monitored CCTV cameras in support of our operations to ensure public safety and help maintain traffic flow. The deployment of these cameras is part of our operations to support community safety and is in keeping with both provincial and federal privacy laws. Temporary signs are up in the area to ensure that the community is aware. If you have concerns about our temporary camera deployment, please email [email protected].
