“I love my kids. I want cars to be able to stop if my young kids accidentally run onto the road without looking.”

“I live on a long street with only one Stop sign, Westwood Drive. Vehicles get going way too fast for the safety of people crossing the street and pedestrians.”

“it would help keep my neighbourhood safer for little ones living there and discourage our streets from being used as a shortcut to other destinations.”

“Bourkevale Drive”

“I live on Manhattan Ave before the tracks and Kent School. The drivers race to beat the trains. We would like to be added as it sounds like a lot are speeding. Talbot and Grey moving towards the tracks before Kent school.”

“being a pedestrian and tandem cyclist, I would like us to make Winnipeg streets more community friendly. I also believe it is important for residential streets to be safe for everyone, especially since our city stopped putting sidewalks in many bays, drives, closes, circles and crescents.”

“I live in a neighbourhood and am more concerned with quality of life than driving speed.”

“Often, when my children are playing outside, or we are going on one of our daily walks, cars come rushing down the street at very dangerous speeds. Some of these drivers are looking at their phones. Our street is filled with wonderful people but the feeling on the street, because of the speedy cars is unfriendly. If we reduced the speed to 30 the message we are sending is that people matter more than speed, that people matter more than a car culture that exists at the expense of community.”

“There are so many walkers that come along John Bruce to access the Bois D’espirits trail heads it only makes sense that the vehicles go slower and become more aware that they share the street with bikes, walkers, pups and carriages.”

“walking and cycling are great ways to get around, have fun and get know our city. Wellington Crescent is great access to Assiniboine Park, and a lovely place for a Sunday cycle.”

“More community, less noise and stress, better mental health, more kids, cyclists and pedestrians! Perhaps less drivers which is better for the environment also!”

“I love 30”

“I was out walking as I do usually and I saw a few of the signs and loved it. I personally have a home made sign on my corner saying KIDS AT PLAY. SLOW! I would love to see these signs in my neighborhood. Lots of kids, Skatepark, and lots of cyclists. Martin Ave. West. GlenElm/Elmwood area.”

“People are stuck in a fog and need to be reminded that driving isn't a race. Especially on their own residential streets.”

“I love beside an elementary school. People need to slow down!!”

“it’s much safer to walk & bike in our neighbourhood with lower speed limits.”

“My child and I enjoy riding our bikes to daycare in the mornings.”

“it keeps kids safe”

“I want my child to be safe on our street and reduce noise pollution levels in our neighborhood.”

“There are 20+ elementary school-age children living on my street - the kids at school call it "The Street With All The Kids" - and they deserve to make it to adulthood safe and sound.”

“Cars drive way too fast down my street day and night. There's a lot of children and free-range cats living in the area, which, combined with cars travelling 50-65 km/hr, is bad news. The noise level from all the cars driving as quickly as they do is also disturbing to the vibe of the neighbourhood.”

“it is safer and quieter for my kids to play and walk/bike/scooter to school and makes my street feel more like a neighbourhood and less like a thoroughfare.”

“I want to be able to let my two kids (and other parents their kids) play outside without being constantly paranoid about drivers driving recklessly on a residential street.”

“It's a composite number, meaning in has more than 2 factors. Just like our streets are not "prime", only for motor vehicles, they are composite and should feel safe for everyone.”

“it creates safer spaces for everybody to use the streets in all modes of transport, whether you're driving, walking, or biking. I want the kids that attend the school and community centre by me to always feel safe getting there, and their parents to not have to worry about kids independently transporting themselves.”

“it makes my community more vibrant and livable. I drive 30 because it makes my community safer for everyone.”

“It slows vehicles and makes them more likely to stop at the 4 way intersection. It saves lives. It encourages positive driving behavoirs.”

“I’d like to survive when a car inevitably hits me.”

“It improves the walkability of my neighbourhood”

“On the two blocks of my street that *should* be 30kph there are two schools, two daycares, a library, a community centre and a military base that runs an active cadet program for youth. It is a designated bicycle route too. There are a lot of kids in our neighbourhood - this is one of the things I love about it. Who needs to get somewhere so fast that they can't spend literally A FEW SECONDS protecting lives? It's two blocks for god's sake... Last year, my dog managed to escape out the front door. He ran into the street and was hit by a car. This car was travelling well under 50kph. He was imjured, but survived and we love him dearly. If that car had been going just a little faster we are certain that he wouldn't be with us. This was my dog. What if it was your dog? What if it was your child?”

“50KPH is far too fast a vehicle speed for a residential street. It feels unsafe (and is not safe) when a car drives by at 50 KPH while you're walking or cycling on the street or (shutter) when kids are walking/cycling/playing on the street.”

“It helps keep kids safer outdoors.”

“My kids can play safely in their own neighbourhood”

“I believe we should put the safety of folks walking & biking in our neighbourhoods ahead of the convenience of cars. We have so many roads in Winnipeg, it's so unfortunate to see all the cut-through traffic that ruins the life of a neighourhood.”

“Streets belong to everyone... not just cars.”

“Slower speeds make for safer spaces! People before cars ❤️”

“It will keep all the people in our neighborhood safer especially our kids!”

“This street doesn't have sidewalks, has parked cars, no bike or walk facilities yet directly connects an elementary and middle school. Soccer mom Indy 500!”

“Freedom of children and humans to move and play more easily and safely! ?”

“Safer & quieter.”

“My daughter would like to cross the street safely and go to the park.”

“I want to live in a city that is people-focused, not car focused. I want vulnerable road users like me on my bike and my kids playing in the neighbourhood to be safe!”

“We love to bring our son in his stroller and our dog to walk in Ernie O' Dowda park but the entrance to the park is right on Midwinter Ave at Brazier St and there is no crosswalk or sidewalk to easily access the park. We have to unsafely run across when there's no traffic or wait until a kind driver stops and lets us go. This park is beautiful and needs to be made more accessible!”

“It makes me feel safer as a pedestrian, runner, and cyclist. I run more than 5 times a week, most of the time with my daughter in the stroller and I want safer streets for both of us. Lower speeds means shorter stopping distances which makes it safer for all users.”

“I care about all the kids at my school. I want them to enjoy some worry-free outdoor time because they have been so isolated. Let's keep up with the slow-down Winnipeg!”

“My 4 year old loves bike rides, so lower speeds makes things less stressful for parents and safer for everyone.”

“my four year old wants to ride his bike, run & walk without fear.”

“I care about the safety of people crossing the street on foot to get to Churchill High School and cyclists using Brandon and Hay as part of their daily commute.”

“...you have a greater appreciation for the beauty in your neighborhood when you slow down.”

“...you have a greater appreciation for the beauty in your neighborhood when you slow down.”

“It's quieter, safer, calmer, more peaceful, and feels like a park. It makes my kids happy. It makes me smile.”

“It helps commuters see my neighbourhood as a place where people live, rather than just a shortcut for their commute.”

“There is no reasonable reason to go faster than 30 kph on a narrow residential street with parked cars for a few short blocks on the way to a main street.”

“We have a 5 year old who likes to play outside with his neighbours. There are so many cars that whip up our street and lanes. Most recently, two vehicles were doing 80 km Friday eve around 630. Up the front street and then the lane between winterton and Ottawa.”

“Kids, pets and families should be able to use our public spaces to play and enjoy without fear for their safety!”

“With all the vehicles flying down our street someone or something is going to get hurt. 30 allows for safety for everyone. Safety is a right, not a privilege.”

“I have a small child that dispite being taught as best as I can still forfets to look both ways. It only takes a second of distraction for tragety to strike. Keep our kids safe and alow down!”

“There are so many kids that play in the neighborhood and there is an elementary school at the end of street.”

“Slow streets are safe streets.”

“It's fun to bike when nobody's going too fast!”

“Lower speeds mean our neighborhood becomes a safer and quieter place to live.”

“I love 30 because it would make my neighbours and I comfortable letting our kids cross the street independently!”

“3 year olds are impulsive little buggers not matter how well I might teach them about road safety.”

“It helps create a safer and quieter space without needing to leave the city”

“We have no sidewalks. It allows us to be out and play.”

“It allows everyone to safely enjoy the neighbourhood!”

“It helps create a safer and quieter space without needing to leave the city”

“... it will keep heavy traffic (and road repairs) to the main roads. Residential areas should be as safe as possible for pedestrians and cyclists and people living in the immediate areas.”

“I’m planning to build a front yard patio and cars driving by at 50k will ruin the mood!”

“I want our kids to be able to be safely physically active in our neighborhood; playing and commuting to school.”
