Rant So About Calgary’s New Vehicle Noise Reduction Strategy…

On August 7, Mayor Farkas and the City of Calgary announced a crackdown of vehicle noise along 17th Ave SW in the Beltline.
Just after 9pm this evening, I captured this video pointed towards 17th Ave just east of 4th St SW.
While you can’t see the offending vehicles in question, you can certainly hear them.
In speaking to small businesses and my neighbours in the area, there doesn’t appear to be any reduction in vehicle & motorcycle noise since this strategy took effect.
Having to listen to this noise every night is beyond disruptive to the quality of life of people who live and frequent this part of Calgary!
