1. City Council authorize the installation of traffic control signals at the intersection of Kingston Road and Columbine Avenue.
Origin
Summary
My office has heard concerns from residents in the Beach Triangle neighborhood about the lack of safe pedestrian crossings along Kingston Road, a major arterial route. Following a successful community petition showing strong support, I am recommending the installation of traffic control signals at Kingston Road and Columbine Avenue. This measure will significantly improve pedestrian safety and ensure safer, more accessible travel for all.
