Discussion with 4th Avenue Residents 4th Avenue serves as a truck route into and through town and is still in a residential area. There are safety concerns with the number and weight of large trucks accessing this street. There is also a big concern with the speed at which vehicles travel down this street, including big trucks. There was discussion around speed bumps and a three-way stop, as well as pedestrian crossings. Trucks hauling dangerous goods was discussed. The old cast-iron waterline has been replaced all along 4th Avenue (not sure about service connections). Residents are upset because work has started before bylaw to do the work was passed. Council has agreed to meet with RCMP regarding speeds on 4th Avenue and also to discuss weight restrictions.
