Alice and Huron Traffic Calming Project

Alice Street and Huron Street are being prioritized for traffic calming plans because they were designated as Community Safety Zones by Guelph City Council.

We will design and implement physical traffic calming measures that help drivers travel at the posted speed and reduce the severity of collisions on these streets.

Proposed traffic calming measures on Alice Street and Huron Street include curb extensions, curb extensions with yield points, speed tables, a modal filter, school house pavement markings, curb radii reductions, and bollards. To learn more about these measures and how they will be used, review the plans and information posted to this page.

How can I participate right now?

Review the proposed traffic calming plans and share insights that may help inform the placement of measures.

Have a look at the boards from the open house to see the proposed traffic calming plans including project timelines and what measures are proposed for each street.

Local knowledge such as drainage concerns, informal crossing locations, or notable street features are especially valuable. These fine-grained details help City staff better understand on-the-ground conditions to develop more effective, well-informed final designs.

About 60 metres further east is a curb extension with a yield to oncoming traffic. After another 80 metres, a school pavement marking appears immediately before a second speed table. Further east is another curb extension with a yield to oncoming traffic. At the Huron Street intersection, existing features include a stop sign and a ladder crosswalk.

Starting at Huron Street, a speed table is placed further along the block, followed by a school pavement marking. Mid-block, a modal filter and directional closure restrict through traffic. Beyond this, another speed table is followed by a curb extension with a yield to oncoming traffic. A final speed table is located closer to Stevenson Street South, ending at the intersection.

Huron Street

Between Manitoba Street and Elizabeth Street

At the Manitoba Street intersection, existing features include an all-way stop with ladder crosswalk markings. Moving east, a speed table with three flexible bollards in the centreline is installed, followed by a curb extension. Further along, another speed table is paired with a curb extension near the intersection with Elizabeth Street.
