Confederation Street Neighbourhood Traffic Calming

Important Announcement

The Confederation Street Neighbourhood Traffic Calming was fully implemented in the Fall of 2023. In the Spring/Summer of 2024 staff will be collecting post implementation data and posting the results in the documents' section.

The Confederation Street Neighbourhood Traffic Calming was endorsed by Council on Monday, July 4, 2022. Please find the Council endorsed report in the Document Section. The full implementation of the traffic calming measures will be scheduled for Summer/Fall of 2023.

Based on the traffic study results and public feedback, staff will be submitting a final recommendation report on the Confederation Street Neighbourhood Traffic Calming to Council on Monday, July 4, 2022.

The final recommended report and attachments can be found in the document section of this project page.

If you wish to appear before Council and speak to the recommendation report, please complete the Application to Appear before Council by Thursday, June 30, 2022 at 4:30 p.m. The application can be found on the Town’s website at haltonhills.ca/delegation.

In recent years, staff have received concerns regarding speeding within Glen Williams. More specifically speeding issues have been raised on Wildwood Road, Confederation Street, Eighth Line, Prince Street and Main Street. After collecting both volume and speed data on various roads, staff have confirmed that some roadways have unacceptable operating speeds based on the posted speed limit. Various non-intrusive traffic calming measures have been implemented including signage, pavement marking, flashing beacons, raised crosswalks, gateway features, speed humps, radar messaging boards and flexible bollards.

Regardless of traffic calming measures that have been implemented, staff continue to receive complaints and are proposing a refreshed approach to address both the speeding concerns on Confederation Street and the surrounding area in Glen Williams. To learn more about this approach, watch a brief presentation or read the official memo to Council.

Road safety is a shared responsibility. Learn how to file a Road Watch Report and Traffic Concern Report to the Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) and help keep our roads safe.

Share Hello, Confederation street is a raceway every evening. I live on confederation and I worry about my kids walking or biking on the sidewalk with cars speeding by way over the 50km speed limit. Speeding here needs to be addressed with police enforcement. This is a school some walking route as well. Why don't we have the flashing 40km sign during school hours at least? There is a section of roadway in caledon - king road between heartlake and Kennedy which people CONSISTENTLY follow the speed limit of 40km; it is heavily enforced since it's been designated as a residential and school zone. It is possible to calm traffic with these measures, and there is no reason children, pedestrains and residents trying to pull out of their driveway should be put at risk when this is preventable. on Facebook Share Hello, Confederation street is a raceway every evening.

Hello and thank you for your suggestions.
School zones are defined to be within 150 metres of a school and for that reason, they are implemented within those parameters.
The implementation of speed humps will be an effective solution to aggressive driving increasing safety in the community.
Share We live on Eighth Line just north of Wildwood and it’s unsafe to walk with kids on the road. It’s unbelievable how many people think it’s a race track! There is no question that speed bumps as you enter and leave the Glen would seriously cut down on dangerous speeding! Please consider this as an essential next step for traffic calming in the Glen.

Share Main Street in front of the school and Glen Fitness is very dangerous because of blind curves in the road. I know speeds have been lowered to 40km, but this still seems excessive. 30km/hr (strictly enforced) on Main through to Forster would be more appropriate. It would also reduce traffic noise and discourage through-traffic by commuters using the Glen as a shortcut, and make it safer for cyclists as well. I firmly believe that active transportation rather than cars need to be the priority in such a small village; the sidewalks are much too narrow (you have to walk single file). On Confederation, the "straight line" approach needs rethinking; broad sidewalks and dedicated bike lanes (not paint on the road) are essential.

Share Thank you for the installation of the speed bump on the lower part of Confederation Street. We are residents who live a bit further up on Confederation, just as it dips down into the valley. Sometimes it feels like you are taking your life into your own hands exiting our driveway, expecting to be rammed from behind by a speeding car coming over the last hill. More speed bumps are needed and in more effective locations. The speed bump installed is already so close to the stop sign that the speed is reduced by that point. Pedestrians are extremely vulnerable on Confederation. Let's not wait for a calamity which could have been avoided. We need the long promised sidewalks and additional speedbumps. on Facebook Share Thank you for the installation of the speed bump on the lower part of Confederation Street.

We are expecting the contractor to mobilize any day now and begin installing the remaining speed humps on Confederation Street.
Share Living on 8th line, we watch the traffic in the busy rush hours while waiting for the school bus. Most of the vehicles are using it is a cut through to avoid Guelph Street, and drive like it is a high speed country road rather than a residential road. There is already a natural speed bump of a raised drainage pipe, and many potholes that do not slow traffic. The first solution would be to design the road to be better shared with cyclists and pedestrians. Draw lines on the road to narrow the lanes, similar to the proposal for Prince Street. A visual bump out or a large structure at the side of the road at the change in speed limit would help calm the traffic. There is not street racing like confederation, so permanent speed bumps on 8th line where there are active farm vehicles seems too extreme as a solution. Speed bumps will still not make it usable for pedestrians or for recreational cycling. The speed limit on 22nd side road needs to come down to 50km, and then 40km for the lower section of 8th line to match Wildwood. A sidewalk or a separate bike pathway is more of a priority than speed bumps. on Facebook Share Living on 8th line, we watch the traffic in the busy rush hours while waiting for the school bus.

Share It has indeed taken many years and much knocking of one’s head against the wall but I am pleased to finally see that the Town has decided that some positive action needs to be taken regarding the speeding and noisy traffic conditions that have for far too long existed on Glen roadways. All the measures outlined in the traffic calming proposal for the Glen will have some deterrent effect on most drivers/riders but my question is ‘who will enforce all these measures?’. The one critical piece missing from these proposals is the role Halton Regional Police will play. A regular, static police presence will, I believe, have greater impact in achieving traffic calming than most of the steps proposed. A marked car will provide deterrence and an unmarked car enforcement thru ticketing and fines. Both measures would give potential offenders pause and perhaps give the Glen a reputation of being totally unfriendly to those who want to let off steam with their cars and bikes. on Facebook Share It has indeed taken many years and much knocking of one’s head against the wall but I am pleased to finally see that the Town has decided that some positive action needs to be taken regarding the speeding and noisy traffic conditions that have for far too long existed on Glen roadways.

Share As a resident of the Glen living on Main St. for close to 47 years, it’s about time something is being done about traffic coming through OUR village. Trough the years, we residents have been promised stricter rules re - speeding traffic and increased police presence. To date not too much has changed. The new approach to Traffic Calming is certainly a step in the right direction. I would like to see the school zone extended further from Prince St. to at least Forester St. Make the speed limit on Main St. from 10th. line to 40 Km. including part of 22nd. side road. Install speed cameras in both directions on Main St. and install vehicle activated traffic calming signs. Speeding through the Glen has to be ENFORCED BY POLICE AND SPEED CAMERAS. More police presence needs to be addressed in the Glen especially during the busy times of the day and on weekends.

Hi Adrian,
Thank you for your input.
Share We are raising our family on Eighth Line and have never felt that it has been safe to walk down the street to the sidewalk on Wildwood. Although many drivers are respectful of pets and little ones, many don’t seem to alter their speeding habits whatsoever. I have witnessed people passing despite the solid line and regularly hear people speeding up off of Wildwood like it’s a racetrack. My hope is that at one point we will feel safe to have our daughter ride her bike on the side of the road. We look forward to some permanent strategies for speed reduction to be introduced.

Confederation Street Neighbourhood Traffic Calming

Ask about Confederation St. neighbourhood traffic calming

Can we get rid of the parking along the school property. When I'm trying to leave the school parking lot I can't see if any cars are coming unless I'm pulled out into the road.

I would like to see speed humps continued on Ninth Line all the way to Fallbrook. I believe they get the best results for the capital spent. This speeding issue has gone on too long, let's get the speed humps done.
