Origin
Summary
Residents on Beatrice Avenue are frustrated by frequent speeding on their street by cut through traffic which endangers pedestrians and cyclists. They have requested the installation of speed humps, which Transportation Services agree would be feasible. Several streets in the surrounding area have benefited from the traffic calming effects of speed humps, and residents are eager to see them installed on Beatrice Street.
