Bruce Street in our neighborhood has become a hotspot for speeding vehicles, putting the safety of our residents at risk. This street, often used as a shortcut, sees drivers exceeding speed limits, especially during peak traffic hours, which increases the likelihood of accidents and poses a grave danger to pedestrians, cyclists, and even other motorists. The continuous speeding is not only a threat to human life but also detracts from the peace and tranquility of our community.

In recent years, there have been several near-misses on Bruce Street, all due to high-speed driving. Families that reside here, many with young children, are deeply concerned for their safety. Furthermore, the street is frequently used by children walking or biking to school. This is a clear recipe for potential disaster if appropriate measures are not taken immediately.

We propose the installation of speed humps along Bruce Street to deter speeding and ensure that drivers adhere to the designated speed limits. Speed humps have been proven to effectively reduce vehicle speeds and enhance pedestrian safety in numerous neighborhoods across the country. By implementing this measure, we can preserve the safety and livability of our community, ensuring that residents can walk, cycle, and drive in peace.

The cost of installing speed humps is significantly less compared to the potential cost of accidents and loss of life. We urge the local council to act swiftly in the implementation of this proposal, prioritizing the installation of speed humps on Bruce Street as a preventative measure to protect our community.

We believe that by making a small change, we can achieve a sizable impact in ensuring the safety and well-being of every resident. Please support us in our quest to make Bruce Street a safer place for everyone. Sign this petition to urge the local authorities to install speed humps and make Bruce Street safer for everyone who calls it home.
