Hillsburgh speed issue

Dear Editor:

As COVID-19 restrictions have lifted, traffic through Hillsburgh has returned to its normal high volume and fast pace.

Gravel trucks, transport trailers and cars are all zooming by.

On a walk this morning down Trafalgar with my small children, it seemed like only a tiny minority of drivers were actually driving the posted 40 km/h speed limit. Drivers seem to have forgotten that children are not in school or day care, they are outside enjoying this warmer weather.

Play structures are still closed so for many families, walking or biking around town gets kids out of the house.

Drivers please remember that children live and play here so slow down.

Joanna Mullen, Hillsburgh
