Rossland to test emergency siren on Tuesday

The City of Rossland is testing its emergency siren tomorrow (July 8) between 1 and 3 p.m. 

Residents will hear several tests conducted during this time as the City works to advance its emergency communication system. 

The City says the test aims to ensure the siren is functioning properly, noting that the system is not live yet.  

“If you hear the sirens, please visit the City of Rossland website, check our official social media channels, or tune in to your local radio station for further instructions. In the event of internet or cellular service disruptions, radio will serve as a key source of information,” the City said in a social media post.
