Traffic Calming

Affected residents to vote on traffic-calming speed humps

Property owners in the vicinity of 10 streets are being surveyed to determine the level of support for adding traffic-calming speed humps in their areas.

The proposed locations for the speed humps are outlined at www.cityofkingston.ca/trafficcalming. Owners of properties in the affected areas are invited to review proposed traffic-calming plans for their streets and register their approval or disapproval regarding them by April 30.

A Traffic-calming Open House to present the proposed plans is set for 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Wednesday, April 7 in the Press Lounge at Portsmouth Olympic Harbour, 53 Yonge St. Residents on the streets listed below will receive surveys to determine the level of support for traffic-calming measures being proposed:

• Conacher Drive between 294 Conacher Dr. and Sutherland Drive East
• Greenwood Park Drive between Rose Abbey Drive and Rainbow Crescent
• MacDonnell Street between Brock Street and Princess Street
• McEwen Drive (north of Henderson)
• Mona Drive between Woodside Drive and Woodbine Road
• Lakeview Avenue between Henderson Boulevard and Front Road
• Rideau Street between Cataraqui Street and Raglan Road
• Rose Abbey Drive between Highway 15 and Grenadier Drive
• Sutherland Drive
• Waterloo Drive

A minimum of 51 per cent of the surveys on each street must be returned and at least 60 per cent of respondents must indicate they are in favour of proposed traffic-calming measures in order for the City to implement the outlined plans.
