Would you like to be a featured family in Neighbours of West Galt?
As the magazine’s content coordinator, I’m planning future editions for fall and winter. I’d like to feature your West Galt family on the cover, with photos taken by professional portrait photographer Stan Switalski.
I’m also always on the lookout for tips and photos about West Galt events to share in the magazine. And I am always ready to receive your pet photos and information, for our monthly Pets of the Month feature page.

Update: All-way stop signs were installed on May 6, 2024, at Blair Road and Bismark Drive in Cambridge, Ontario.
New crosswalks were also painted at the intersection, in all four directions.
All-way stop signs are coming to Blair Road and Bismark Drive in West Galt, six months after all-way stop signs were installed nearby at Blair Road and Grant Street.
According to signs posted at the intersection, the Blair-Bismark all-way stop signs installation is set for May 6, 2024.
Salisbury-Hardcastle All-Way Proposed, too
And residents of the Salisbury Avenue and Hardcastle Drive area may also get the all-way stop they want at that intersection, too.
There, people have been asking the City of Cambridge for traffic safety changes since 2020.
$1,200 cost for All-Way
Cambridge City Council unanimously voted to spend $1,200 to install more stop signs at the Blair-Bismark intersection on February 27, 2024. The work included new pavement markings.
It’s a busy route for students walking to nearby St. Augustine Catholic Elementary and Blair Road Public schools along Bismark. The schools are located to the west and east sides of the intersection.
The all-way stop was installed at Blair-Bismark due to concerns raised by area residents, says a staff report to City council on February 27, 2024.
Blair-Grant All-Way Stop
In November 2023, the city installed all-way stop signs at the Blair-Grant intersection near Mount View Cemetery.
That’s about a kilometre south of Blair-Grant. That’s at the start of the one-way section of Blair Road towards downtown.
