Noise wall for Milton road Halton Hills Colin Sheldon calls them ugly and Halton Regional Chairman Peter make his hair stand on end They re both referring to noise barriers that cut down traffic noises from highways and collet tor roads Last weeks planning public works committee at the region adopted a attenuation policy and supported the building of a metre high noise wall or the south side of Steele from Thomp son Road to opposite the Court House in Milton The policy has been in the plann ing for over four months and coun showed no more enthusiasm for the noise barriers last week than they did back in J a nun when regional engineer Bruce Kitchen first introduced the noise abatement policy Concerned about the aesthetic look of the noise walls Sheldon wanted reassurance that before they go up a majority of the residents approve it These walls could be tious she warned last week meeting a Milton resident produced a second petition requesting a noise barrier far Avenue He said that with the closing of Highway recently the traffic levels went up and never went down when the highway reopened Truckers have learned that if they exit the highway at Highway travel along Steeles and then gel bock on Highway at Trafalgar Road they can avoid the weigh scales he said Along with approving a noise wall for Steeles councillors requested a staff report on the costs of the wall and possible sources of funding it this year The report will look at the costs and funding of a similar wall on Line from Upper Middle Road South St Francis Drive in Burlington A Burlington resident was present at the meeting to com plain about traffic noises in that neighborhood as well also wants the province and federal governments to improve standards on tire and vehicle manufacture so that the noise and exhaust from them is cut reducing the need for noise abatement walls in the community As for who pays for these walls Halton wants the costs shared bet I FEATURING DIANE HOPSOH SECTION A THE
