On the agenda

As the city filed it

In 2021, residents submitted a petition to my office requesting speed humps along Markham Street between College St and Dundas St W. Residents have observed an increase in local traffic and speeds. The installation of speed humps may assist in mitigating some of the cut-through traffic and make conditions safer for local vulnerable road users, including seniors and children who play, walk, and cycle on the street.
