Origin
Summary
Residents living on Dallimore Circle have contacted my office requesting a sound barrier between their property and the Don Valley Parkway. I support this initiative, but recognize this highway is being uploaded to the province.
Therefore, I am requesting that the City ask the Province to build a sound barrier once the transfer of land is completed.
