The army adds that military vehicles may be seen along Oxford Street and Highbury Avenue, as well as Highway 3, Highway 46 and Highway 24.
Soldiers taking part in the training are expected to remain in their vehicles, unless they need to get out for maintenance purposes.
Drivers are asked to take extra caution when approaching military vehicles.
The training is intended to keep units primed and ready to respond to domestic missions such as floods and wildfires, as well as international stability operations.
