I would like further detail on the traffic calming program. I realize there aren’t specific costs and it depends on the outcomes of resident consultation and the measures that are chosen but order of magnitude will help. Perhaps recent costs on Malmo can provide some insights: 1. Perhaps a very brief background on the traffic calming program- I believe Mr. Schick said this program was a council initiative? 2. What was the approximate cost of the temporary measures / work done to date on Malmo 3. What is involved in making traffic calming permanent on Malmo - is it just turning traffic cushions into permanent speed bumps or would the temporary curb jut-outs have to be turned into permanent curbs? 4. What is the approximate cost of making traffic calming permanent on Malmo? 5. Is the capital expense just for the actual implementation? I.e. are the resident consultation and surveys done through operating / staff position? 6. What are the streets / intersections / neighbourhoods that are on the radar for next steps.
