Road Safety Response Team
The Road Safety Response Team is an internal working group that is made up of representatives from Cobourg Police, Public Works (Roads and Parking), and Legislative Services and other departments depending on the issue at hand. The goal of the Road Safety Response Team will be to streamline a response to road safety concerns.
How to Voice Your Concerns
Residents are asked to voice their safety concerns relating to speeding, speed limits, traffic issues and parking directly to the Road Safety Response Team by emailing Roadsafety@cobourg.ca.
Submit Concern
The Road Safety Response Team Process
- Concerns raised in relation to road safety, speeding, changes to road speed limits, parking, etc. would be required to be submitted in writing to the Road Safety Response Team by emailing Roadsafety@cobourg.ca.
- All concerns will be received and forwarded to the agenda for the next scheduled meeting date. The schedule is important as the citizen will be informed of when the matter will be discussed. The schedule is also important to allow sufficient time for each impacted department to conduct their respective studies/investigation on the subject matter.
- Each of the concerns will be circulated to the team members who would then perform their respective studies/investigations.
- Each department brings their findings and reports back to the Response Team for discussion at the next scheduled meeting.
- The Response Team determines a resolution to the concern.
- The concerned citizen receives a response back from the Response Team through the Team email address.
What Happens Next?
- Should the resolution be that changes are required/recommended and are strictly operational in nature, staff will proceed with implementation.
- Should the resolution be that changes are required/recommended that require Council approval, the appropriate staff member will prepare a report to Council detailing the required/recommended change including any budgetary requirements for Council’s consideration.
How Often does the Response Team Meet?
It is expected that the Response Team will be scheduled to meet every six weeks so as to permit staff sufficient time between meetings to conduct their required studies in preparation. Additional meetings may also be scheduled in between scheduled meetings should an urgent matter arise.
