Midland residents will have opportunity to address Yonge St. changes
(UPDATE: The public meeting scheduled for August 27 has been deferred.)
Midland residents will have a chance to address council on the recent changes made to Yonge Street during an upcoming council meeting.
Council initially scheduled a public information session for Aug. 27 at 5:30 p.m. where a staff report on the implementation of the Yonge Street would be presented.
Mayor Gord McKay has elected to defer the meeting “until sufficient data has been collected,” according to a statement on the town’s website.
Town administration will continue to gather traffic volumes and bike lane statistics over the course of the calendar year.
New lanes were painted on Yonge Street in mid-July. A once four-lane road was changed to include two driving lanes, two bike lanes and a centre turning lane.
