Origin
Summary
In May 2021, residents reached out to my office with an urgent concern about speeding
along their street and requested via an online survey that traffic calming measures (speed
humps) be installed as a method of addressing these concerns. Of the residents that
responded, 89% were in support of making this change.
I am requesting that speed humps be installed on Gordon Street from Sheridan Avenue to
Dufferin Street.
