Based on a traffic study made in 1961, Oshawa streets in 1981, even if widened to their maxi- mum width would still be unable to cope with the volume of traf- fic they will be called upon to handle. Robert F. Richardson, a member of the Oshawa City En- gineer's staff, who specializes in traffic and parking problems, told members of the Oshawa Rotary Club at their Monday dinner meeting there is cause for concern due to the fact that motor vehicle registrations are expected to increase from the present 16,95¢ to 48,980. by 1981 and that it is calculated the city's population at that time will be 133,000. IMPORTANT DOCUMENT The speaker said the age 0! which his predictions are based, important city council during the next 20 years, He said the program is calculated to be implemented in four, five-year periods. The total estimated cost is $29,100,000 but share is only increase the government's share by having streets de- Mr. Richardson said the Gen- eral Motors South plant, the downtown business area and the shopping centre. The peak period for trafifc is between 5 and 6 p.m. on Friday night. Studies showed that only 38 per cent of the traffic stopped in the downtown area. The re- Traffic Problems Seen Increasing "We found the average 'speed in the downtown area at the peak period was only eight miles an hour during the rush period, People might as well walk," the speaker commented. It was explained that it is pos-| sible to calculate the traffic capacity of any given street. In Oshawa the bulk of traffic trav- els north and south. VALLEY ROADWAY One of the factors designed to handle more traffic is the pro- posal to build a valley roadway from Malaga road, south of Bloor street, to Taunton road west. There would be traffic ex- changes at Highway 401, in the west of the downtown business section and at Rossland road. To facilitate the flow of traffic it is also proposed to make Bond street a one-way street for westbound traffic as far as Stevenson road and King street a one-way street for eastbound traffic. In addition Simcoe street would be one-way for north- bound traffic from the vicinity of Fairbanks and Royal streets to Adelaide avenue; while Ade- laide avenue west, Church and. Centre streets would be one- way for south-bound traffic. Wentworth street would also be extended easterly to Fare- well avenue and connect with Highway 2 at Harmony road. It is also proposed to make Olive avenue a one-way street. This street would also be extended to the east. Mr. Richardson told the gath- ering there is a shortage of 500 parking spaces in the downtown area at present and 2,000 more spaces should be added in the mainder was only passing next 20 years. During the sessions a number of policy matters of a proyincial nature were approved. They will be presented to Queen's Park. The policy submission of the Oshawa chamber, proposing that community chambers of commerce and boards of trade encourage local business-educa- tion programs and other proj- ects to promote close co-opera- tion between educationists and businessmen was approved and will he included in the submis- sions to the provincial govern- ment, In the annual gavel of the year contest for communities of 50,000 and more people, Presi- dent Riehl was presented with an honorable mention award for Oshawa's activities in chamber work.
