Throughout Orangeville there has been many concerns put forth by residents regarding traffic safety. The prevailing concern is that vehicles simply drive too fast on our neighbourhood streets.

It has been consistently proven that higher speeds contribute to higher risk of serious injuries and fatalities by reducing driver reaction time, increasing the vehicle stopping distance, and inflicting more severe blunt force trauma on victims upon impact.

A Reduction of speed limits is a tool that the town of Orangeville can utilize to reduce the number of road traffic crashes and the serious injury and safety concerns that result from high vehicle speeds.

1. Therefore be it resolved that all 50 km/h roadways in Orangeville be revised to 40km/hour. Excluded streets will include major town roads listed as follows:
     1. Hansen, First Street, Townline, C Line, Riddell, Centennial, B Line, Broadway

Upon implementation of this initiative, the town will engage in a robust public education campaign and a request for support from Ontario Provincial Police Service for targeted enforcement.

In addition,
The following streets will immediately be changed to a community safety zone:
    2. McCannell Avenue, Blind Line (within Orangeville limits)
    3. McCannell Avenue to have a flashing electronic speed sign installed.

In early June of 2020, the Town of Orangeville moved quickly to enable establishments to open temporary patios, and to apply for new outdoor boulevard café permits. Boulevard Cafés in the Downtown core and other restaurants were permitted to extend into the parking spaces in front of their restaurant, provided that adequate accessibility is maintained for patrons and the public.

Currently, the existing bylaw ends as of October 31st 2020.
It is the desire of the those businesses to extend the bylaw into November, weather permitting.
The purpose of this notice of motion is to extend the outdoor permits to November 30th.

  • That the meeting be adjourned.
