Lower Speed Limit for Railway Street On Hold

Some members of Kenora City Council are resistant to lowering the
speed limit on Railway Street.

A group of residents have signed a petition asking the city to approve
a reduction in the speed limit from 50 kilometers an hour down to 40.

They are concerned about the windy road and the fact there are no sidewalks.

But some council members, including mayor Dave Canfield feel the current
speed limit isn't unreasonable.

Council has agreed to put the matter on hold until their next meeting in July.
