Woodburn, OR — The Woodburn Police Department (WPD) will conduct increased traffic safety enforcement at the start of the new school year, beginning Monday, August 25 through Friday, September 5, 2025. Enforcement will take place in all Woodburn school zones.
During this time, officers will focus on violations including speeding, seatbelt use, unlawful use of mobile devices while driving, and other unsafe driving behaviors. The goal is to help ensure the safety of students, school staff, and community members during this busy back-to-school season.
WPD reminds motorists that most school zones in Woodburn have a 20 miles-per-hour speed limit between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on school days. Traffic violations committed in these zones are subject to enhanced fines.
The Woodburn Police Department encourages all drivers to slow down, plan ahead, and allow extra time when traveling through school zones. Together, we can help make this school year a safe one for everyone.
