The Uxbridge Fire Department will hold a simulated training exercise on Saturday, October 17, 2026, from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Sandford Community Centre in the Township of Uxbridge.
Residents may notice an increased presence of emergency personnel wearing hazmat suits during the exercise. The Township says the activity may look alarming but is part of the normal operation of the simulated exercise, there is no need for alarm, and residents should continue daily activities as normal.
The Township published the notice on October 14, 2026. The exercise is training, not an emergency.
