This summer, Toronto police's marine unit is launching a pilot project to create a 200-metre motorized watercraft exclusion zone at Hanlan's Beach. This initiative aims to improve the safety of swimmers, kayakers, and paddleboarders by prohibiting all motorized vessels, including personal watercraft and powerboats, from entering the designated area. Clearly marked buoys will outline the zone, with patrol officers ensuring compliance through education and enforcement. Additionally, a 400-metre 'quiet zone' will limit amplified sound on the beach to enhance enjoyment for all users, supported by regulations under the Canada Marine Act.
