Traffic Calming on Heather Way

It looks like speeding as subsided somewhat since the installation of speed humps on a busy East Saint John street. The speed bumps were added to Heather Way earlier this year, after a 79-year old woman was killed by a speeding vehicle on Heather Way last year. Head of the police traffic division, Sgt. Jeff LaFrance, says it's difficult to say exactly how well it's working because monitoring takes time.

Sgt. La France says so far he hasn't received a lot of complaints from residents about the speed humps or speeding.
