Hamilton has a legacy of multi-lane, one-way arterial streets dating back to the 1950s. Do you support accelerating the conversion of these streets to two-way? Why or why not?

| Jackson, Tom | Maybe | Ironically, I was on City Council after Amalgamation when we took the momentous, controversial step of converting James and John Streets to “two-way” streets. I believe I have continued to support all other requests for “2-Way” conversions for arterial and residential roads, primarily in the Lower City. However, I’m not sure about the future of Main/King/Cannon conversions. |
| Taylor, Timothy | Yes | I support continuing the conversion. Before this process started, I did not support the conversion of our One Way system into Two Way streets. I do, however, now support finishing this process because I feel downtown has become a much less safe place to drive with the current mishmash of traffic styles. |
