What we heard

Public consultation has concluded – thank you for your input. We will be working on Phase Two of the Safety Review Action Plan through 2022.

At our open house held February 26, 2020, approximately 70 people attended and another 20 people participated online. We received over 250 written comments, and had many interesting and informative conversations. We heard a wide variety of perspectives on all the treatment options presented. Many people we heard from were in support of infrastructure-based solutions such as improved crossings, measures to encourage speed reduction, and pedestrian priority treatments. We also heard some concerns about:

• Program-based treatments that may require volunteer support or rely on enforcement.
• Closing streets to vehicle traffic, including concerns about longevity, impacts to nearby streets, and parking challenges.

Overall, crossing safety and reducing speed continue to be the most commonly mentioned priorities. To address the safety issues around Ridgeway Elementary we’ve developed a phased action plan.

For more details on this plan please review the Safety Review Action Plan below.
