Speed reductions discussed
by Michelle Minnoch

Town staff is looking into possible speed reductions in three areas; Leslie Drive from the 25th Sideroad easterly to Willard Avenue, Willard Avenue from Innisfil Beach Road north to Leslie Drive, and Jans Blvd. from Leslie to Webster.

The speed would be reduced from 40 km/hr from 50 km/hr.

Councilor Rod Boynton remarked the wider the street, it seems the more of a racetrack it becomes.

Councilor Dan Davidson asked if the posted limit would be 24 hours, or only during the time when the kids are in school. Councilor Bill Pring said in the area of Innisfil Central they have a sign with flashing lights, indicating when drivers are to slow down to the 40 km/hr.

"My concern is the street racing on these streets," said Councilor Boynton. "We need to reduce the speed to stop the racing."
