The Town of Milton is potentially installing speed cushions along Martin Street between Steeles Avenue and Millside Drive.
Over the last few years, a number of studies were undertaken to assess the need for traffic calming measures on Martin Street. The results showed that additional measures warranted consideration.
As part of the Town’s Traffic Calming Policy, 51% of residents directly impacted by the traffic calming measure must be in support for the measure to be implemented. In this case, 51% of residents with direct residential frontage along Martin Street between Steeles Avenue and Millside Drive must be in support.
How you can participate:
Residents living within the neighbourhood or on the affected road are encouraged to watch the virtual presentation of the proposed Martin Street speed cushions.
After viewing the presentation, residents with direct frontage on Martin Street are asked to complete the survey below indicating support or no support of the proposed speed cushions
Comments and survey responses will be accepted until May 30, 2025.

Share Besides calming traffic measures on Martin Street. There are other areas around Milton especially the Education District on Louis St. Laurent Drive where the street has turned into a major road block during peak hours and I have witnessed vehicle tumble over and this is a serious concern to families walking to school and this needs urgent action. on FacebookShare Besides calming traffic measures on Martin Street.

Thank you for your comment.
Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) may be implemented on any roadway in Milton, provided it falls within a designated Community Safety Zone or School Zone.
Please note that ASE is not a permanent installation, as cameras are rotated between various locations.
While the Town of Milton is in the process of developing an ASE program, there are currently no ASE cameras in place.
Kind regards,

Thank you for your question.
The speed cushions are 8cm high. This height is a standard throughout all of Canada using our Transportation Association of Canada guidelines.
Residents that live directly on Woodward Avenue have seen a reduction in speeding and volume.
Staff are currently collecting data on Woodward Avenue to see how the speed and volumes have changed since speed cushions have been placed.
Automated Speed Enforcement will be considered for any roadway within Milton as long as it is in a Community Safety Zone or a School Zone. Staff are currently working to get our Automated Speed Enforcement Program running as soon as possible.
Thank you for your contribution!
