City considers roundabout at Second Line and Goulais Avenue
SooToday 14Please please please.. No Roundabouts! All you need to do to see the disacterous result of poorly concieved roundabouts is to try navigating the one constructed in Sault Michigan.Also please no more bike lane on major arterial roads where there is no need.. Look at the traffic congestion that has already been created by bicycle lanes on Queen St, east (between Pine ans Pim Strees), Northern Avenue (west of GNR, and what is now being done on Wallace Terrace. This city's engineering department or traffic department or whoever is responsible for these blunders, as well as the traffic lane configurations on East Streetat Albert St, Albert St west of Gore St., and McNabb St (west of GNR needs to be addressed by Council.

Contracts awarded for rebuilding Peoples Road, East Street
SooToday 5It is good to see the city moving toward bicycle tracks next to the roadway rather than on road bike lanes. Much safer for everyone... and reduces the interference with traffic flow. They have been doing this in Europe for quite some time.

Airlines flee small cities — Sault included — cutting key links to rest of Canada
SooToday 13It's no wonder that air traffic passeneger numbers are down between Sault Ste. Marie and Toronto given the terrible flight times, high number of flight cancellations and increased costs during the past couple of years. For a while there we were afraid to book with Air Canada as we are usually looking for connectng flights and they were cancelling more flights from the Sault to TO or the return flights, which caused all kinds of issues, delays and inconvenience. We have found it is often cheaper, quicker and more convenient/reliable to drive to Toronto.

Are traffic calming measures a waste of money?
SooToday 5The speed limit in this area should be increased and the traffic calming bollards removed.... not just on this road either. The bollards are ugly and do little to slow traffic... and when they do they lead to increased congestion,,, much like many of the lane reductions to allow for bicycle lanes.The City's engineering department needs to give their head a shake.
