A local community member from Belleville is advocating for safer road design along College Street East in the industrial court. During her daily commute, she noticed that the road appears to be four lanes wide, yet has no painted lines, leading to unsafe driving behaviours such as cars using the shoulder, a lack of signal indications and vehicles passing at high speeds. To highlight the risks of this unclear road design, the community member has shared numerous examples of close-call incidents and reported the issue to the City of Belleville through the municipal online reporting system, asking for the lanes to be clearly marked and a separated bike lane.
