  KITCHENER The City of Kitchener is looking to re-implement the Slow Streets initiative, a measure to get more cars off the road to leave room for more physically distanced pedestrians and cyclists. “More space is a really good idea,” said Emily Watkins, pedestrian who walks her dog on Duke Street. It s one of the eight streets flagged for the initiative. Kitchener’s Community and Infrastructure Services Committee approved the plan at a meeting Monday afternoon. The initiative includes installing signage, pylons and barricades. The idea is that people who live in those areas would still access the road, but traffic cutting through would find a different route.
