Advocating for improved pedestrian crossings

A young changemaker has raised concerns about the lack of safe pedestrian crossings at the intersection of Alex Brodie Drive and St. John’s Sideroad. People frequently cross this four-lane road to access Trent Park and a nearby trail from the surrounding residential areas but there is no crosswalk for pedestrians to cross safely. The young changemaker suggests adding a crosswalk, flashing pedestrian signals, or a pedestrian refuge island to improve safety. The issue and proposed solutions have been shared with a local councillor.
