On the agenda
As the city filed it
Earlier this summer, Transportation Services and I met with local residents for a neighbourhood walk in the Bloor Street West and Gladstone Avenue area to discuss local community concerns and solutions. A key issue raised was regarding speeding and dangerous driving on Gladstone Avenue in gaps between existing speed hump locations. In 2000, the approved speed hump locations for Gladstone Avenue created a gap of over 90 metres at some locations.

Residents are now experiencing the impact of that decision as speeding drivers race towards each speed hump. I am recommending the installation of additional speed humps on this section of Gladstone Avenue to reduce the dangerous gapping and match current City standards for the spacing of speed humps. The additional locations will work alongside speed humps recently installed on Gladstone Avenue north of Hallam Street. Together, these changes will reduce speeding and improve safety for residents and visitors to the neighbourhood.
