Attention:
Councillor Ana Bailão, Ward 18, Davenport
We, the undersigned residents of Ward 18, Davenport, request that the City's Transportation Services Department consider installing speed humps on Brock Avenue, from Dundas St. West to Florence Street. We strongly feel that during the last few years, traffic and speeding has significantly increased on our street. With many young families in the area and the presence of a community centre, we agree that speed control measures such as speed humps would be the best way to make our street safer.
Nós, os residentes do bairro 18 Davenport neste abaixo-assinado, requisitamos que o departamento de Serviços de Transportes da câmara de Toronto instale lombas de controlo de trânsito na Brock Avenue, da Dundas St. West a Florence Street. Somos da opinião que nos últimos anos o tráfico e a velocidade têm vindo a aumentar significativamente na nossa estrada. Com um grande número de famílias com crianças a residir nesta área e a presença de um centro comunitário, nós concordamos com a instalação de medidas de controlo de velocidade, tais como lombas, como a forma mais eficaz de garantir uma maior segurança na nossa rua.

Too many drivers have no regard for the safety of others. It’s a sad reality, but we need to “force” them to drive responsibly. Also, the stop sign in the southbound lane, at Brock & Frankish, should be taller. It is often hidden behind parked vehicles and is easy to miss.
we've lived in the neighborhood for more than five years, we have been promised on more than one occasion that the city was going to fix this intersection but nothing has been done. Speed humps are not in my opinion the solution but they are whats on offer so I guess we'll just have to take them!
People drive much too fast up this street, especially by the park and community centre. It's especially dangerous now that it's dark early- it is dark while walking home from my six year olds skating lesson up Brock each week. I know many people use this route to avoid Dufferin and sneak onto Landsdowne via Wyndham street.
I've lived very near for 9 yrs and have lost count how many times I've nearly been hit, as both a pedestrian and cyclist. Bumps should've been added years ago!
My 7 month old baby and I were almost hit by a car who did not obey a stop sign and flew through the intersection yesterday. If I hadn't run, we likely could have been hurt. Speed bumps are needed for this stretch of Brock!
Please make our neighbourhood safer!
I live on Brock just north of Florence. Cars constantly speed on the street, making it extremely dangerous for my kids and pets. Speed bumps would help make the neighbourhood safer.

It’s terrifying how fast cars go by the skating arena. The sidewalk is not wide. We take our 3 and 6 year old boys to skating lessons there and it is not a community friendly road. Bumps, signage and a police presence handing out tickets to speeders is needed
