The Town of Huntsville is requesting that the District of Muskoka conduct a speed limit analysis and consider lowering the posted speed limit from 80km\/h to 60 km\/h on Brunel Road.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The change in speed limit requested would apply to the stretch between Markle’s Road to Britannia Road. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The request was brought up at Huntsville Council’s May 26 meeting. It was brought forward by Deputy Mayor Dan Armour via Councillor Monty Clouthier as a result of speeding complaints from an area resident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Armour said drivers go through there at a high rate of speed, and while enforcement is probably the best way to address concerns, “in the meantime, we thought we’d send something to the District and just have them do an analysis of the road to see if it doesn’t warrant an actual reduction.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Councillor Bob Stone said he always questions the speed reduction approach. “We know it doesn’t really change the behaviours on that road, and is there a more encompassing study to inform us of what’s appropriate,” he asked referring to roads across Huntsville and Muskoka in general. “There’s some people that would like all of our roads to be 20 kilometres an hour and there’s others that would like them faster.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clouthier spoke of roads like Brunel, where there are many houses and families living along them, and the need to ensure the speed of the travelling public along such roads is reduced for overall safety. He said there are stretches along Brunel where it changes to 80 kilometres per hour from 60, 40 and 50 km\/hr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere\u2019s absolutely no need to have 80 between there, in that stretch of road because it has houses on both sides of it, there’s heavy populations plus there’s a large dog kennel along there too, you know a lot of people are in and out of that [road] traffic-wise.\u201d He said the lower the speed limit, the higher the fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Councillor Dione Schumacher said she had been speaking to Brandon Hall, Civil Engineering Technologist with the Town, who she said has indicated that under the Highway Traffic Act, the standard is 80km\/h “unless we as a council decide otherwise.” She questioned whether the Highway Traffic Act needs to be changed. She also said the municipality has undertaken a Roads Needs Study, which, although it may not be completed, does look at roads and possible speed limits, “So I think once that is fully completed, we will get a copy of that…” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She suggested that speeding should be addressed through a combination of measures, including speed-calming strategies and said police isn’t out doing the enforcement, particularly in rural areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Councillor Jason FitzGerald also said he thought there wasn’t enough enforcement. He said people will continue to speed, and when they do get caught, the fines are minimal. “I think it’s time we started looking at other communities that have cameras to keep our roads safe. You know, at what point do we say enough is enough,” said FitGerald, who spoke of a near-miss on Clearwater Lake Road due to speeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hall said the Transportation Association of Canada manual is what the municipality follows, which considers a multitude of factors when considering speed limits. He said the consultant working on the Road Needs Study has identified roads that need to be reviewed under that manual. “So that has already been completed, and we’re starting that process this summer. We have an extra four traffic counters that are going to help us to complete that task, so we’ll know which ones we may be coming before you with a bylaw amendment to reflect those changes, but they’ve already been pointed out over our total kilometres of road.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hall explained to councillors that the changes in marked speed limits on Brunel, which is a District road, are transition zones. “So you’re not going to have an 80 to a 40. You’re not going to have an 80 to a 50. You need to go 80 to 60, then you can get to 50.” He also told council to consider that changes in posted speed limits can also impact the level of service those roads receive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, council agreed to ask the District to run an analysis of the road.<\/p>\n\n\n
