Wright Crescent Transportation Improvements

Roadway repairs, along with pedestrian safety and access improvements and traffic calming features are planned for Wright Crescent this summer.

The pedestrian improvements will improve accessibility and safety along Wright Crescent by improving the condition of the existing sidewalk and slowing traffic.

Planned improvements:

• A reconstructed sidewalk along the inside of Wright Crescent, replacing the existing asphalt sidewalk with a concrete sidewalk
• Construction of curb bulb-outs along Wright Crescent to provide traffic calming, and to delineate the areas for on-street parking.
• Narrowing of Wright Crescent to further support traffic calming
• Storm sewer modifications to improve roadway drainage
• Watermain replacement along the north leg of Wright Crescent
• Repaving the entire length of Wright Crescent
• Construction of a multi-use path between Wright Crescent and Sir John A. MacDonald Boulevard.
• Upgrading sidewalk para-ramps to current standards at both Wright Crescent and Palace Road intersections

Construction Impacts

• Access: During construction, there will be some lane reductions. Roads may be temporarily closed during repaving or driveway access may temporarily be unavailable for short periods during construction.
• Parking: On-street parking may be reduced or not available during portions of construction.
