Drivers at the Mall at Piccadilly have nine new reasons to pump the brakes.
On Tuesday morning, May 2, the mall had new asphalt speed bumps installed by the Canadian Tire entrance off 10th Street SW. They were placed one on either side of existing bumps, with an another cluster of three added.
Mall property manager Lori Cymbaluk explained the new speed bumps were put in for public safety.
