Public Engagement on Quarter Town Line
The Town of Tillsonburg strives to ensure that the public is involved in all aspects of developing a safe, healthy and happy community.
The Town’s current Parking By-law 2022-029 regulates Traffic and the Parking of Motor Vehicles within Town limits. It was passed and adopted by Town of Tillsonburg Council on March 28, 2022. Since this time the By-Law has performed well, however, there is a need for minor amendments to ensure the By-Law is current based on legislation, identified needs and emerging issues.
Safety concerns were identified by the public and staff regarding vehicles parking on Quartertown Line blocking sight lines. The specific concerns are traffic, congestion, and near misses entering onto a busy arterial roadway increasing the possibility of an accident.
The proposed amendments would allow By-Law the ability to address these safety concerns. In addition, due to the high volumes of traffic during school hours, this would help reduce the potential for accidents, as this is a busy area. This recommendation was brought forward at the Traffic Advisory Committee on June 12, 2025 and a notice will be sent to neighbouring property owners and the South Ridge Public School
informing them of the proposed changes.
If you have any questions or comments regarding the proposed changes, please call 519-688-3009 ext. 4611 or submit written inquiries/comments by email to ccyr@tillsonburg.ca on or before August 11, 2025.
