Residents have reported that construction-related activity in the surrounding area has led to increased traffic volumes and speeding, impacting their safety and livability. In response to these concerns, my office conducted a ballot which the temporary installation of four speed humps on Stanhope Avenue is supported by local residents to deter non-local traffic, reduce vehicle speeds, and enhance pedestrian and community safety while significant transit infrastructure work is ongoing nearby.
