As the city filed it

Since 2017, my office has been working closely with residents in the Janda Court area to address traffic safety concerns in the community. I have met with this community on numerous occasions and residents have overwhelmingly requested a reduction in speed limit for the residential area north of Queens Plate Drive. This neighbourhood contains two parks and is in close proximity to both Woodbine Mall to the south and Humber College to the north.

The City's "Vision Zero 2.0 - Road Safety Plan" report, as adopted by Council, recommended that all local residential roads be converted to 30 km/h. As authority for changing speed limits on local roads is delegated to Community Council, the bylaws to reduce local roads to 30 km/h will be part of future reports to Community Council. I am asking for your support to move this item forward for my community, to ensure that a speed limit reduction to 30km/hr can be put in place as quickly as possible.
