traffic. Fairford is a local residential street, designed to carry local
traffic. The two meet in a delta intersection which is unsafe for pedestrians
and encourages commuter traffic to cut through the local neighbourhood. Even
semi-tractor trailers have come onto Fairford and gotten stuck.
THE GOAL:
- Increase pedestrian safety
- Decrease commuter traffic infiltration through the neighbourhood
- Make the intersection more beautiful
THE PROCESS:
- Tested two new intersection designs and conducted traffic counts
- Numerous site meetings
- Residents’ feedback through email and letters and phone calls
-
3rd party review by traffic engineer with pedestrian specialty
