The city confirmed that our plan for the Princess Street lanes is moving forward exactly as we hoped. Seeing these changes become reality means so much to me after all the time spent worrying about road safety in our neighborhood. I am grateful for everyone who stood by this vision …

We,the undersigned,support City Council in the decision it made on August 13, 2013 to approve the preferred design concept for cycling lanes on Princess Street in Williamsville

https://www.cityofkingston.ca/documents/10180/1770507/EIT_A0813-13015.pdf/f8313f29-6fd7-4aad-b9b2-bfc866ce770a

Please include your email address/ home address anddo not sign as "anonymous" as these signatures cannot be used

We specifically support the "Complete Streets" priorities of walking, cycling, and using transit as exemplified in this design. The wider sidewalks and signalized pedestrian crossing also make this development a great step forward in making Princess Street, "Williamsville" a thriving people place.

Seeing 250 names on this list feels surreal because I remember when walking down Princess Street felt like risking my life. You have all given me real hope that we can finally turn this neighborhood into a place designed for people instead of just cars.

I ride down Princess Street every morning and I am tired of playing chicken with traffic just to get home. We need a few more signatures to hit our milestone before I take this to the council meeting. Please send the link to your neighbors so we can show them that Williamsville wants safer streets.

Cars arent the only things that use the road. Its about time we made it safe for everyone to get around.
