Advocating for clear lane markings on an arterial road
This page was last reviewed on October 16, 2025
A Belleville resident has raised concerns about safety on College Street East near FedEx and SafeStart. The road is unusually wide, likely to accommodate transport trailers, but with only a single yellow line dividing traffic, drivers are often unsure if it is one lane or two. This confusion has led to close calls, including vehicles passing on the right while others attempt to turn into nearby parking lots. The resident warns this could result in a serious collision and recommends adding signage or road markings to clarify that the right side is not a passing lane. The resident has submitted the concern to the City of Belleville through its website.
