Safety advocate, residents question council decision to make speed cameras more visible | CBC News
Briefly

Toronto plans to improve speed camera signage, responding to calls for enhanced visibility. However, advocates like Faraz Gholizadeh stress that mere signage changes are inadequate without comprehensive street redesigns that encourage safer driving behavior. Parkside Drive, notorious for speeding and dangerous traffic conditions, exemplifies the need for true infrastructure improvements over superficial measures such as better signage. Residents express concern over persistent speeding issues, underlining the necessity for substantial traffic management strategies to enhance safety for pedestrians and drivers alike.
Faraz Gholizadeh, co-chair of the community group Safe Parkside, emphasized that the city needs to implement comprehensive street redesigns rather than just increasing signage and camera presence.
Janet Keeping, a resident near High Park, voiced her skepticism about the impact of the council's motion but argued for speed cameras as a necessary measure to improve safety.
