First Public Information Centre

On Sept. 25 the first of two Public Information Sessions was held to share project details with the community. Presentation materials from the event are available to view on this page.

What we heard

Participants at the information session were encouraged to leave comments on the design. A summary of what we heard is below. Comments and feedback are reviewed and carefully considered by the project team.

Construction management and impact: There was some focus on the construction phase of the project, suggesting lessons could be learned from the previous big dig along Princess by engaging the construction industry. As well as concerns about impacts during construction, specifically access to services located along Princess Street.

Design comments: Comments pointed out that some buildings in the area already have bus stops and benches. While others focused on signal timing, requesting longer pedestrian crossing times and consideration of a two-stage pedestrian crossing at Frontenac Street.

Parking: Reducing parking was suggested to support active travel options.
