Petition addressed to: North Dumfries Township
To the Mayor and Members of Council of the Township of North Dumfries:
WE, the undersigned, respectfully petition the Township Council to take immediate, emergency action to protect Clyde residents and visitors by implementing the following safety measures without delay:
- The immediate installation of physical speed bumps or speed humps on critical residential roadways throughout Clyde to legally force vehicle deceleration.
- The implementation of all-way stop signs at all intersections within the village to disrupt high-speed through-traffic.
- The immediate installation of signage identifying the larger area of Clyde as a community safety zone to alert motorists of the need to slow down in our residential community.
Reason
On Monday, June 15, 2026, Nathan Smith's family, friends and the community of Clyde suffered his tragic, preventable, and heartbreaking death, due to ongoing road safety issues. Excessive speeding and inadequate traffic calming measures throughout the settlement of Clyde continue to pose an immediate, severe, and daily threat to the lives of local residents, pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists alike.
Thank you so much for your support, Kristine Duench, Cambridge

Even when I was little growing up in Galt back in the mid 70’s, I remember we had cousins move from Fort Erie onto Clyde Road and the vehicular speeds were insane.. in a way it beggars belief, & truly cheating the odds indeed that more tragedies haven’t happened along this stretch of road…
Our heats go out to his wife and daughter..
