Temporary Neighbourhood Traffic Circle
special artisan market vendors required
The City of Orillia is piloting a one-year traffic calming project at the intersection of Forest Avenue South and James Street East beginning in mid-August.
The installation of the temporary traffic circle at the intersection is aimed to address concerns related to collisions and speeding and involves using temporary rubber curbing and recycled asphalt to create the circle without altering the existing intersection curbs. Visit orillia.ca/TrafficCalming for details.
