Alfred- Plantagenet Mayor Jean-Yves Lalonde has asked for a delay on the counties decision while his own public works department evaluates the reduction request. Speeding is also behind a complaint about the current setup for the intersection
The main eastbound lane links around the turnoff lane and has a traffic sign warning through traffic to keep to the right. The intersection has had an overhead amber flashing light for several years now to warn motorists from both directions to watch for traffic turning off the main road.

L’ORIGNAL | Complaints are starting to pile up about how some drivers treat some of the county roads in Prescott-Russell like they were over-the-limit speedways.
attempt by the counties and municipality to deal with traffic concerns at that intersection that relate to speed. A request for a reduced speed limit and a new traffic light setup on a section of County Road 17 was rejected by the counties public works committee. The request concerns the intersection of County Road 17 and Laurier Street in Rockland. A resident has asked the county to lower the speed limit along the county road near that intersection from the current 80 kilometres to 60 and to also install a regulated traffic light there. The intersection has
A St-Albert resident has asked the United Coun- ties of Prescott-Russell council to extend the 50-kilometre-an-hour speed limit on the eastern boundaries of the village. The counties council’s public works committee supports the request. The public works department will prepare a bylaw for the speed zone extension for counties council to approve at a future meeting. Another request for reducing the speed limit is on hold

The counties public works department has received an email complaint from a resident across the Ottawa River in Thurso, QC, about the changes made to the traffic guide lines at the intersection. The new line-painting scheme creates a short divided eastbound lane setup at the intersection with a marked left-turnoff strip for drivers who want to get off County Road 17 and go into Wendover.
been the site for several accidents over the years. A counties public work department report noted that a traffic count was done at that intersection last summer and the numbers do not warrant either a speed limit reduction or a traffic light based on current provincial highway standards. There is a reduction of the speed limit to 60 kilometres an hour further along the county road near the off-road entry to the Canadian International Hockey Academy (CIHA).
