Excessive traffic speed along Lakeshore Road East, in the region from Winston Churchill to Ford Drive has been an issue of great concern for many years. Local residents have brought it to the attention of the Town of Oakville. This is of particular concern as it is in the location of a school where young children need to cross Lakeshore Road. As a result, speed studies were conducted in 2008 and 2010. On both occasions, a substantial percentage of traffic was traveling at speeds far in excess of the posted maximum of 50km/h.
