7 · OAKVILLE BEAVER Thursday, May 21, 2009 Forklifit driver injured A forklift operator is in critical condition at Hamilton General Hospital following a serious traffic accident on Dundas Street yesterday. Police said the forklift had been travelling westbound on Dundas Street at around 1 p.m. when one of its tires blew. The sudden flat tire caused the driver to lose control of the forklift and he was thrown onto the roadway. The driver is now in hospital. The section of Dundas Street where the accident occurred was shut down until 3:30 p.m. while the Halton police Reconstruction Unit pieced together exactly what happened. LIESA KORTMANN / OAKVILLE BEAVER Mosquitoes focus of Halton WNV program The Halton Region Health Department's West Nile Virus (WNV) control and surveillance program is underway. While the health department's dead bird surveillance program has been discontinued, as a result of provincial funding cuts, a comprehensive WNV program will still be carried out in Halton Region. "Dead crows and blue jays have helped identify the presence of West Nile Virus, but mosquitoes provide better information about West Nile Virus activity," said Dr. Bob Nosal, Medical Officer of Health for Halton Region. "The Health Department will continue to use adult and larval mosquito surveillance to determine the health risk of West Nile Virus as a part of a comprehensive control program." Halton residents are reminded to take precautions when outside; avoid being outside at dusk and dawn, cover-up and wear insect repellent with DEET. Halton Region will begin larvaciding when staff have identified mosquito larvae in catch basins or other areas of standing water. Locations that have received larvaciding can be found at www.halton.ca/wnv. Sites will also have a sign posted. SERIOUS INJURY: Dundas Street between Sixth Line and Town Boulevard was closed for several hours yesterday afternoon. A fork lift operator was seriously injured after being thrown from his machine when it developed a flat tire. bankruptcy liquidation at Otello's Banquet & Conference Centre, 2273 Royal Windsor, Oakville May 23rd & 24th 11am-6pm OTELLO'S BANQUET 2 DAYS ONLY Largest selection in North America Hundreds of styles, colours and sizes for all tastes and budgets. 100% top quality hand knotted rugs. o of 0%2ndfne 8 get the nd a REE F prices lower than bankruptcy EXPERIENCE THE HALTON VACUUM DIFFERENCE CLEAN HOME SALE * CENTRAL VACUUMS Great Value Performer · 500 air watts · Powerful enough for most homes · Electric Powerhead and hose · Complete set of attachments * Limited time offer Spring Special Edition renity 375 · 600 air watts · Ultra quiet serenity package · Deluxe electric power head with swivel handle, 3 way switched hose · Complete set of deluxe attachments CANISTER VACUUMS PRECISION $ only Do you suffer from Asthma or Allergies?
