Traffic calming refers to roadway design features that help reduce vehicle speeds and create safer, more comfortable streets for everyone. These measures are especially helpful on neighbourhood roads where residents walk, cycle, play, and travel daily.
One of the most effective and straightforward tools is the speed bump, which encourages slower, more consistent driving. Communities that implement traffic calming often experience:
· Lower vehicle speeds, improving safety for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers
· Reduced cut-through traffic, helping maintain neighbourhood character
· Quieter, more livable residential streets
· More predictable and comfortable road conditions for all ages and abilities
The City of Greater Sudbury is committed to supporting vibrant, people-friendly neighbourhoods, and traffic calming plays a key role in achieving that vision.
This project is being funded from revenue generated by the City's Automated Speed Enforcement program.
What’s Happening on Your Street?
Your roadway is one of eight locations across the city selected for the installation of speed bumps. These improvements are part of our ongoing work to enhance neighbourhood safety and respond to resident feedback.
A preliminary design has been prepared, and before we move ahead with final design and installation, we want to hear from the people who use the street every day.
Below are the first 8 locations we're looking for feedback about:
Brenda Drive (Moonrock Avenue to St Charles Lake Road)
Lansing Avenue (Lasalle Boulevard to Maley Drive)
Grandview Boulevard (Montrose Avenue to Moss Street)
Bancroft Drive (Kingsway to Bellevue Avenue)
King Street (Morin to Notre Dame Avenues)
Kelly Lake Road (Southview Drive to Copper Street)
Robinson Drive (Kelly Lake Road and Southview Drive)
Auger Avenue (Lasalle Boulevard to Falconbridge Road)
