Several residents have discussed speed limit concerns within their neighbourhood. The roads of concern are local roads with the speed limits of 50 kilometre per hour, I wish to reduce this speed limit to 40 kilometre per hour in conformity with other local roads in Don Valley East.

Reasons for implementing these speed limit changes include:

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

- The need for a consistent posted speed limit on local roads, where some may not have sidewalks.
