Yonge and little is increasingly busy and is a dangerous left turn due to poor visibility of oncoming traffic with a hill there.

Traffic from the Bayfield exit from the 400 south backs up right onto the highway because of one silly stop light. This intersection needs a separate right turning lane to keep traffic moving as well as an advanced turn left. This is one of the busiest streets in the city coming off a busy highway. It needs addressing

Pot hole repair needed in many areas of the city. Essa Rd. is quite bad. Suggestion to close roads and do a pot hole blitz similar to what Toronto is doing.

With increased traffic on Ferndale drive, an advanced green turning left from Ferndale to Edgehill (westbound) would ensure safety of pedestrians and drivers. I believe there is already an advanced green to turn eastbound on a Edgehill, so makes sense to also have it for westbound traffic.

Thanks for reading my suggestion

Some of us can pay our whole muni tax property bill at first billing. how about a 5% break on the tax? would get more $$ in faster?

when city workers are filling pot holes on the streets they should tamp the asphalt down as they are filling or it will not last. Try a little work it won't hurt you.

The Barrie police has a swat team and we pay very heavy taxes towards them! In light of the shootings, the Barrie police need to seriously start cracking down on neo Nazi terrorist activities. Whether it is a yellow vest screaming, some anti abortionists or anti LGBQT “protesters” etc. Hate speech is not free speech and these groups have proven to be violent and are now threatening our democracy. Instead of targeting minorities and innocent people doing day to day things. They should be going after them!

Cities in Europe are experimenting with free transit. They are finding a 125% increase in ridership and minimal tax increases. I think free transit would make Barrie a leading community. And it would be money well spent. Especially when you factor in the cost of installing presto and enforcing fares.

Many waterfront parks have dogs on the property and in the water despite signs prohibiting them. I've seen city workers out in the parks but no one enforcing what's posted on the signs. This creates hazards in our parks and waters, especially for children. Perhaps designate some non-waterfront parks for dogs and their walkers.

All of these bus routes travel to the same quadrant of Barrie and are scheduled to depart from the terminal within a 5-min window. If you could stagger these schedules across a 15-min window, it would reduce waiting times for some passengers at the terminal and provide a more frequent service to that neighbourhood without needing to increase the frequency of any routes.

More and more homes are being sold, renovated and used as rental properties. The principal owner doesn't live there. The number of tenants have so many cars that they park on the street in front of other peoples homes, not cool. In the past cars have run into on this street.

Using milk crates, mobile urban gardens can be easily set up on vacant lots around Barrie (ie: NW corner of Five Points). This initiative would be volunteer driven by anyone who is interested in growing and maintaining a community garden. This would also be a great idea for local restaurants who may not have the room to grown their own vegetables and herbs, the opportunity to have fresh produce at their access. I would be interested in discussing this idea further to those who are interested.
