Permanent speed cushions will soon be a thing of the past in Guelph

Now remove the bike lanes that haven’t seen a bike since inception.

Permanent speed cushions will soon be a thing of the past in Guelph

For what it's worth, if people, including handicapped, would slow down, there would be no "bone jarring"! First, our government takes away speed cameras (policy could well have been altered) and now, a sensible way to slow all vehicles in high traffic areas has been canceled due to pressure applied to politicians. Ask the police service what their opinion is. Potholes create more problems for vehicles than soft cushion speed bumps.

First you put in all these traffic calming measures because people complained. Now you're taking them out because people complained!? You guys should be gymnasts you do so many flip flops. You didn't do anything when people complained about the bike lanes though did you? What is this costing us and who's budget is it coming out of? Gong show!

Guelph & District Multicultural Festival faces shortfall as it celebrates 40th year

Celebrating multiculturalism was such a quaint and lovely idea some forty odd years ago. Now? Not so much I’m afraid. Time to let the festival wither and die on the vine.

Interesting how a third of them are in one neighbourhood. Which City staff live in the Grange hill area?

City winter control budget $1.9 million over budget due to weather, salt costs

Don’t forget there was also an additional $600,000+ spent on snow removal for the bike lanes.

West end developer can't issue parking tickets, tow vehicles: council

The City is a major part of these problems as at the very beginning of of these projects they permit the construction to proceed with less and less parking and to many variances to zoning. As usual here we go again with court proceedings and very distressed tenants that are paying disgustingly high priced rents. Lets stop these greedy contactor problems at the beginning, NOT as they proceed.

What? I'm confused, you're removing them because some people find them too hard? How is this any different than the horrible, bumpy, pot hole filled roads we have that haven't been improved since last year? There's also gradual ones, not the plastic ones with a hard lip.

In this year's coming election I will vote for anyone who stops any further traffic calming measures and/or has existing ones removed.

But Al gore has claimed that parts of the world would be snow and ice free by now..."Buy my doom and gloom book, and book me as a public speaker while I het all over the world, live in my heated and Air controlled mansion with a bigger footprint then some small towns..."

City of Guelph to take over water billing starting in June

"City of Guelph to take over water billing..." Now there's a disaster waiting to happen. "City of Guelph to take over [anything]..." is a disaster waiting to happen.

Exactly! If people drove the speed limit and used their heads while driving, we wouldn't need all these speed bumps, or cushions. or whatever you want to call them.

I recommend research to understand the difference between local weather and global climate.Plus I'm always concerned with those who cite specific individual examples to absolve themselves from seeing reality and from taking any personal responsibility. It's unhelpful.

Would not have been in this position and several others if City Hall didn't sell our own personal money maker [[ GUELPH HYDRO ]].
