Intersection pedestrian signals

We are installing intersection pedestrian signals at several locations to make it easier and safer for pedestrians to cross busy roads. In 2026, we are installing these signals at the following intersections:
- Bath Road at Lafleur Park
- Concession Street at Kingscourt Avenue
- Stephen Street at Patrick Street

How do intersection pedestrian signals work?
Pushing the button activates the traffic signal, which stops traffic and indicates when pedestrians can cross the road. Drivers turning from the side streets are controlled by a stop sign, rather than traffic signals; they may complete their turn only when the way is clear of both vehicles and pedestrians.
Installing intersection pedestrian signals supports the City’s strategic priority of Building an Active and Connected Community. Through this work, we are designing and constructing road and traffic calming measures at 30+ locations to improve pedestrian safety across Kingston.
Project benefits
The intersection pedestrian signals at all three intersections will help students and other community members cross busy roads safely.
The two-stage crossing at Bath Road-Lafleur Park will help pedestrians cross the four-lane road while keeping traffic moving smoothly.
Construction impacts
There will be occasional lane reductions as work takes place at each intersection. The intersection work is taking place through spring and early summer 2026.
