In recent years, staff have received concerns regarding speeding within Glen Williams. More specifically speeding issues have been raised on Wildwood Road, Confederation Street, Eighth Line, Prince Street and Main Street. After collecting both volume and speed data on various roads, staff have confirmed that some roadways have unacceptable operating speeds based on the posted speed limit. Various non-intrusive traffic calming measures have been implemented including signage, pavement marking, flashing beacons, raised crosswalks, gateway features, speed humps, radar messaging boards and flexible bollards.
Regardless of traffic calming measures that have been implemented, staff continue to receive complaints and are proposing a refreshed approach to address both the speeding concerns on Confederation Street and the surrounding area in Glen Williams. To learn more about this approach, watch a brief presentation or read the official memo to Council.
Road safety is a shared responsibility. Learn how to file a Road Watch Report and Traffic Concern Report to the Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) and help keep our roads safe.
