@namestillloadin Thank you for taking the time to share your comments, @namestillloadin. We're looping in @RegionofDurham, who is responsible for traffic signals, so that they are aware of your concerns.

@oshawacity If Simcoe is closed for two yrs can the light timing change along Simcoe near the construction? Priority is North travel and no one is going North. Gibb/Elm stacks up waiting for no one. Bloor to Ritson needs 2 L turn lanes to accommodate Simcoe/Wilson closures.

🔊 A public meeting will be held on Monday, May 4 regarding City-initiated Amendments to the Oshawa Official Plan, Zoning By-law 60-94, and Brownfields Renaissance, Harbour Road Area and Wentworth Street West Community Improvement Plans. Details: oshawa.ca/news/posts/pub…
