Origin

(April 21, 2022) Letter from Councillor Ana Bailão, Ward 9, Davenport

Summary

In January 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 those that responded,

91% were in support of making this change.

 

I am requesting that speed humps be installed on Sheridan Avenue from College Street

to Dundas Street.
