Origin
Summary
I am writing to request your support in directing Traffic Operations to install traffic calming measures along Heathdale Road between Raglan Avenue and Humewood Drive.
There has been sustained community concern dating back to 2022 over vehicles speeding throughout this residential street, with documented crashes occurring since the community’s initial request for traffic calming. With the installation of speed humps throughout this street, I am confident that this measure will help to slow down drivers along Heathdale Road.
