Jim Watson is promising to earmark almost $1.5 million a year to implement road
safety measures if re-elected mayor on Oct. 27. The bulk of the money — $1
million — would be split among all 23 wards, to be used for traffic-calming
measure such as flexible sign posts, painted lines on roads, and even planters
that help to slow the speed of vehicles. The new money amounts to less than
$44,000 per ward per year. via
