Speed Limit By-Law Update October 27, 2020 Page 1 of 25 B 3 - CW Action Committee of the Whole Meeting Date: October 27, 2020 Submitted by: Chris Traini, County Engineer SUBJECT: SPEED LIMIT BYLAW UPDATE BACKGROUND: County staff review speed limits on County roads from time to time based on changes to the roadside environment due to development, changes in the alignment of the road resulting from reconstruction, or by citizen or municipal request. ANALYSIS: It is important to remember that changing the posted speed limit in areas where it is not warranted can create lower compliance with drivers and actually decrease the safety of travellers in the area due to a larger discrepancy of vehicle speeds. Village of Denfield, County Road 20 (Denfield Road) A number of homes have been constructed on both sides of Denfield Road south of the Village of Denfield between 15 Mile and 16 Mile Roads. It is appropriate to reduce the speed limit from 70 km/hr to 60 km/hr at this time due to the development in the area. Village of Bryanston, County Road 23 (Highbury Avenue North) A request was received to reduce the speed limit on Highbury Avenue North to 60 km/hr from Ilderton Road to the Village of Bryanston. Due to the lack of any roadside development along this stretch of road a reduction in the speed limit is likely to have little effect on driver behaviour. The 60 km/hr zone at the south limit of Bryanston is at an appropriate location and gives ample time for drivers to slow when entering the built- up area. October 27, 2020 Page 2 of 25 B 3 - CW Action Village of Newbury, County Road 1 (Hagerty Road) Concern was raised by a resident north of the Village of Newbury that traffic had been speeding and passing dangerously while they were turning into their driveway. While this may be occurring a reduction in the speed limit is not recommended as it is expected to have no effect on this type of driver behaviour. Boundary Adjustments: A number of settlement areas have grown over time and it is appropriate for an adjustment to the 50 km/hr speed limit zones in the following areas: County Road 22 (Egremont Drive) – east and west limit of Lobo County Road 29 (Hamilton Road) – west limit of Dorchester County Road 30 (Putnam Road) – south limit of Crampton County Road 73 (Elgin Road) – south limit of Mossley RECOMMENDATION: That the revised by-law designating prescribed rates of speed on County Roads No. 1 to 81 inclusive be approved. Attachment October 27, 2020 Page 3 of 25 B 3 - CW Action THE CORPORATION OF THE COUNTY OF MIDDLESEX BY-LAW # A By-law Designating Prescribed Rates of Speed on County Roads No. 1 to 81 Inclusive.

Wills Associates Limited PARTNERS IN ENGINEERING Peterborough North Bay Final Report November 2014 2014 Road Needs Study Update Township of Lake of Bays Executive Summary The Township of Lake of Bays retained the services of D.M. Wills Associates (Wills) to undertake a review of the Township’s existing road network, and assess its physical condition as well as confirm various road attributes. Data collected as a result of the field review was used to develop a prioritized listing of the road network needs, the results of which are documented in this report. The Township’s complete road infrastructure system spans a total of approximately 219 km primarily within a rural setting, with urban and semi-urban centres. The road network includes surfaces ranging from gravel to hot mix paved (asphalt). The Township has approximately 122 km of gravel roads, 67 km of surface treated roads (low class bituminous (LCB)), and 30 km of hot mix asphalt paved roads (high class bituminous (HCB)). An overall road system adequacy has been calculated, consistent with the MTO Inventory Manual for Municipal Road, February 1991, based on a number of road characteristics including: Capacity Structural Adequacy Geometrics Drainage Surface Condition Maintenance Demand Shoulder and Road Widths The overall system adequacy for the 2014 Road Needs Assessment is 82%, considering roads of greater than 50 AADT, per the inventory manual practice. It should also be noted that a significant portion of the roads identified as deficient are such due to inadequate surface widths; their overall structural adequacy generally being good.
