Summary

Lynedock Crescent is both a collector road and local road within Ward 16, the section discussed here is a local road with inconsistent speed limits to the collector portion. The collector portion of the road from Sandover Drive to Fenside Drive is 40 kilometres per hour, while the remaining stretch East of Fenside Drive to Roywood Drive is 50 kilometres per hour.

 

Residents have requested a uniform speed limit of 40 kilometres per hour for all of Lynedock Crescent. The reason for this change includes: 

 

- The need to eliminate any confusion that could come because of differing speed limits.

- The desire to reduce vehicle operating speed and improve pedestrian safety.
