Origin
Summary
In spring 2021, residents on Rosedale Heights Dr, just east of Whitney Public School brought forward concerns regarding the speed at which cars travel in a school zone and on Rosedale Heights Dr by submitting petition requesting speed humps.
Residents have noticed an increase in vehicular speed in recent years. The installation of speed humps, along with other measures already taken in the area, will make the street safer for local vulnerable road users, including seniors and children who play, walk and cycle the street.
