A study has begun to identify alternative locations and conceptual design alternatives for a new pedestrian crossing over John Counter Boulevard and the CN Rail line to provide a north-south connection for the existing Kingston and Pembroke Trail (K & P Trail), between Division Street and Elliot Avenue. The Study Area is illustrated on the Key Map below. The need for this crossing was identified in the City’s Active Transportation Master Plan (ATMP) and the initiation of this study was committed in the City’s Five-Year Active Transportation Implementation Plan (ATIP).
The existing K&P Trail (purple line – Study Area Key Map) within the study area runs from Division Street at Weller Avenue, along Division Street to John Counter Boulevard, and then to Elliot Avenue. The urban section of the trail runs seven kilometers through the City and is a stretch of pathway that is a mix of both on and off-road facilities. The urban section pathway is generally three metres in width and paved except for on-road sections at Division Street, River Street and John Counter Boulevard.
The Study Process
The study is being conducted in accordance with Schedule B of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) (October 2000, as amended) process. It will confirm and document the existing conditions of the study area and identify possible locations that best support a new pedestrian bridge crossing. The environmental impacts of each option will be evaluated, in consultation with the public and external agencies. Following that a technically preferred location will be selected.
Public input and comments will be considered in developing location options and design concepts. If you have any questions or comments regarding the study, or would like to be included on the mailing list to receive future notices and study updates, please fill out the form contact the project managers listed on the Who's Listening section. If you have any accessibility requirements in order to participate in this project, please contact one of the project team members.
