Lakeshore residents are being asked for their input as they study the impact of traffic, speed, and the state of local roads.
The Municipality is conducting a community survey in partnership with Paradigm Transportation Solutions Limited.
The project consists of two parts. The first is a speed limit survey, which will include a process to evaluate and recommend speed limit changes on roads, as well as assess the potential impact of lower speed limits in urban areas.
The second portion is a review of the Municipality’s current Traffic Calming Policy. Taking the information collected and following a review of best practices, the updated policy will include guidelines for evaluating and implementing traffic calming measures.
"This process will be a great opportunity to engage residents in the creation of community-based solutions that address concerns around traffic, speed, and safety," said Mayor Tracey Bailey.
The survey can be taken online. Residents can also report traffic-related concerns to the Municipality through the online reporting tool. A public information session will take place in June. Details will follow.
The survey is open through June 16. If you need help filling it out, call the Public Service Unit at (519) 728-2700, ext. 0, during regular business hours. A summary of feedback and draft policies are expected to be presented to Lakeshore Council for consideration later this year.
