  • An active transportation lane and 30km/h speed limit are welcome additions to protecting people on Cornwall Ave

    Meeting Date:

    Motion to protect people on Cornwall Avenue

    I am very happy to support the addition of exploring feasibility of an active transportation lane. Certainly, strongly supportive that heard it from a lot of places. I will be asking that we sever the vote on this amendment. I won't be supporting the move to make the speed reduction 40 instead of 30. First of all it doesn't, I don't understand how we can say it's easier to enforce at 30 than 40? And what we've heard very clearly from speakers and from many studies and many emails we've been getting, is that the impact to a human life from being hit at 30 versus 40 is significant so if we're doing this work let's do it in the way that makes the most difference for every single individual who could be involved in an accident.
