Members of the public shouldn’t be alarmed by military-style vehicles traveling between Stratford and London on Wednesday.

Canadian Army Reserve personnel from 31 Service Battalion, London Support Company will be conducting “regular, scheduled” training in the region, the Department of National Defense said in a press release.

“Activities will include administrative convoy training on a planned, return highway route transiting London, Ballymote, Bryanston, Prospect Hill, Conroy, Stratford, Fairview, Brooksdale, Youngsville, Kintore, and Thorndale,” the release said.

“This is … training that keeps our combat service support personnel and units ready to respond to missions in Canada – like floods and wildfires – and support of international stability operations with partners and allies. All measures are being taken to ensure minimum inconvenience in these areas during the exercise dates. Members of the public are asked to take extra caution when approaching military vehicles, and are thanked in advance for their understanding and co-operation.”
