Summary
Residents contacted my office requesting speed humps on Sussex Avenue between Spadina Avenue and Robert Street.
Residents have observed a dangerous increase in traffic and illegal speeding on this quiet residential street. The installation of speed humps may assist in mitigating some of the cut-through traffic and make conditions safer for local vulnerable road users.
