Summary
A number of residents on Lord Seaton Road have contacted me to share their concerns about speed and volume issues on their street. Residents regularly observe vehicles operating at speeds well beyond the posted limit of 50km/h.
Lord Seaton Road is a residential street with many families and children walking to and from the nearby St. Andrews Park, Tournament Park, Owen Public School, and St. Andrew's Middle School.
There is TTC service on a portion of the street.
Transportation staff have no objections to the proposed speed limit reduction.
