Ward 10 Coun. Andre Chabot said a better alternative than having people drag race on city streets is to give them a place to go.
That’s part of a notice of motion coming to Calgary’s Executive Committee meeting Tuesday. The item calls for an increase in police presence, but also a scoping report on potential road closures for street racing.
The motion cites the lack of a legal outlet for people to test the vehicle upgrades against other cars. Chabot said main drags like Rundlehorn Drive, Temple Drive, 52 Street SE, 68 Street SE are just a few of the places that turn into after-hours drag strips, he said.
