  • Why Go Bus Shelters will make highway 10 a safer commute!

    Life teaches us all that change is inevitable.! Like a fast form of
    Global Warming the simple undisputable fact, that vehicular traffic has
    increased 5 fold inside 15 years on South Highway 10 (Caledon) has now
    become a stark daily reality to all those that use highway 10.
    The recorded growing carnage of approx of.600 accidents inside 2 years is
    sad testament to either the inadequate engineering of the roadway. Perhaps
    It`s many rudimentarily highlighted…

    Life teaches us all that change is inevitable.! Like a fast form of
    Global Warming the simple undisputable fact, that vehicular traffic has
    increased 5 fold inside 15 years on South Highway 10 (Caledon) has now
    become a stark daily reality to all those that use highway 10.
    The recorded growing carnage of approx of.600 accidents inside 2 years is
    sad testament to either the inadequate engineering of the roadway. Perhaps
    It`s many rudimentarily highlighted intersections(poor overhead lighting, 20
    year plus traffic lights & difficult sight lines). The simple exponential
    increase in the volume of traffic or all of the above.
    Combine these facts with the unwitting and semi-unfettered sponsorship of
    commercial (truck oriented hubs). The ever growing dependency of double
    tandem trucks to transport our growing aggregate business.Plus the multitude
    of uncontrolled access points near or at our 4 major intersections and you
    have the makings for a pending Lake Megantic Tragedy.
    Go Services and the MTO have been passively negligent in ameliorating the
    circumstances that has resulted in > 65 near fatalities and 12 deaths on our
    stretch of highway 10 in the last 24 months. Weather & driver error fall far
    short of explaining these ghastly numbers. Now is the time, that we the tax
    payer, start to advocate for positive transportation changes within our
    community.
    The provincial Government has allocated $50 Billion for the upgrading of
    transportation infrastructure over the next 20 years. Why some of this
    largesse is not being funneled towards making highway 10 south a safer
    commute defies common logic.If you compound these facts with the reality that the Pan-Am games will be
    here by the summer of 2015 and the elevated Pearson/ Union rail link will be
    fully operational.
    The glaring but burgeoning issue of the
    non-interconnectivity of the Go train services and it`s Go bus lines
    explodes to the surface.

  • Why Go Bus Shelters will make highway 10 a safer commute! part 2

    Placing Go Bus shelters,(especially with bike racks) would simply and
    irrefutably encourage enhanced rider-ship plus promote greater frequency of
    service. The fact that. People could ride from their village to the roadway
    and commute, knowing their bike was locked, stored and with today`s computer
    apps know ahead of time when the next bus will depart.
    This credible but highly tangible enhanced rider-ship would inevitably
    result in better(more overhead) lighted…

    This credible but highly tangible enhanced rider-ship would inevitably
    result in better(more overhead) lighted intersections with properly painted
    illuminated cross-walks. The columniation of these modest upgrades would
    create a clear and irrefutable need to upgrade the 20 plus year traffic
    light technology that orchestrates our local intersections.

  • Why Go Bus Shelters will make highway 10 a safer commute! part 3

    The concept that deaths at our intersections are "within acceptable limits
    on the Kings Highway" is not only sange-froid but borderline malicious
    comfort to the next family that gathers to bury a loved one due to the
    inaction of the MTO or Go services.
    Lets start to think of a better way to lighten the load on our highways.
    Ask for change, demand change. Please feel free to contact Mayor Morrison or
    M.P.P. Sylvia Jones offices both of whom have been supportive of…

    Ask for change, demand change. Please feel free to contact Mayor Morrison or
    M.P.P. Sylvia Jones offices both of whom have been supportive of these
    glaring safety oversights. The time is at hand to request that they send
    another letter to the growing pile of letters accumulating on the Minister
    of Transport desk, the honorable Glen Murray.
    We deserve better, our children and our grandchildren deserve better.!
    Caledon will be 750.000 people by 2035. Jane Jacob`s plus numerous other
    social anthropologists have been quoted " that cities develop along the most
    infantile transport infrastructure networks".Think of the city that you want
    in the foreseeable future, L.A Gridlock (loss of Billions $) or in a more
    perfect world copy the environs of Paris,Vienna & Munich with their
    pedestrian friendly zones, super clean and efficient public transport
    systems. Now is the time, to forward your opinion, take that first step
    email your local representative with a request that helps safeguard you and
    your loved ones. Shakespeare wrote that "fortune favors the brave".& God
    helps those that help themselves. Carpe Diem

    Orangeville Citizen also reports than nearly half of all trucks on County Road 109 are unsafe. http://www.citizen.on.ca/news/2013-09-26/Front_Page/Police_safety_blitz_on_109_finds_nearly_half_truck.html

  • Upgrading 4 intersections & traffic lights on Highway10 thru south caledon

    - Present

    583 accidents and counting on HGH 10 inside 2 years plus 65 fatal or near fatal accidents have occurred along a 20 km stretch of highway 10 south of Orangeville. Many at or near our local intersections in the last 30 months. The 410 merger with highway 10, has resulted in the volume of traffic on HGH 10 increasing 4 fold inside 15 years. Recently it was approximated at > 80,000 cars a day. There has been minimal safety improvements at our intersections.The #`s speak volumes.
