In case anyone is wondering what is going on with traffic in Durham this morning. Crazy!

I would LOVE to see election signs banned from public spaces.

It's great that they were caught, but one count of mischief? That's more disappointing than their actions.

OSHAWA: Neighbourhood speed pilot program (www.oshawa.ca)

Not sure if any other municipalities in Durham Region are doing the same, but several areas in Oshawa have had their speed limits reduced from 50km/h to 40km/h.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like these new speeds are being enforced, since I'm seeing people going well beyond 40km/h in these areas.

For anyone who cycles, jogs, walks, or enjoys time outdoors, the proposed Durham Meadoway is one of those once in a lifetime opportunities to change Durham Region for the better.

Planners are currently looking for public feedback on the proposed route, and you can add your own "pins" with comments to the interactive map!

Please, let the Region know how to make the Meadoway even better!
