University of Waterloo Transit & Ring Road

[Viewfromthe42]

University of Guelph has speed humps and the Guelph Transit buses seem to cope just fine with them. (I don't think GO buses drive on their ring road.)

"Cope with" means they can indeed go over them. But in several meetings in our region, GRT, fire, and ambulance services have all complained about the delays and repetitive non-trivial damage caused to their vehicles. Time and again, it's reliably shown that if it feels safe to drive above the posted speed, people will do so. Trying to slow people down does not work as well as making it feel unsafe to speed.
