Summary
Residents contacted me office requesting speed humps Howland Avenue between Dupont Street and Bloor Street West.
Residents have observed an increase in local traffic and speeds. The installation of speed humps may assist in mitigating some of the cut-through traffic and make conditions safer for local vulnerable road users, including seniors and children who play, walk, and cycle on the street.
