Origin
Summary
This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority to make a final decision, provided that it is not amended so that it varies with City policy or by-laws.
Transportation Services is reporting on the results of the traffic calming poll undertaken on Major Street, between College Street and Ulster Street. The poll provided a response rate of less than the 50 percent plus one ballot required by the traffic calming policy in order to confirm that there is a favourable consensus in the community to install speed humps on the subject section of Major Street.
Accordingly, continuing the process to install speed humps on Major Street, between College Street and Ulster Street, is not recommended.
