Auxiliary Force Cadet Bicycle Patrol
Whether on foot Downtown or via a patrol car throughout Winnipeg, our Auxiliary Force Cadets have become known for being there when the community and/or our members need them most.

This summer, the Cadets have added a new bike patrol that enables them to get to even more places and in quicker order.
 
The Bike Patrol will consist of 16 Auxiliary Cadets who received specialized training and will be mobile city wide.  They will enhance the Cadet mandate by being more visible and more accessible to citizens with increased patrols in other districts, including bike paths, riverbanks and parks.

 
This initiative builds on the mandate of the Cadets to build positive relationships in the community, deliver a visible presence, and provide operational efficiencies by freeing up general patrol officers to focus on other duties.
