Overview
The pilot project has reduced Aquitane Avenue from four lanes to three lanes. This traffic calming measure will help increase the comfort, accessibility and safety for all road users, including cyclists, pedestrians and drivers. It will also help reduce speeding on the roadway by narrowing the road and help keep traffic at a slower speed.
As part of the pilot, on-road protected bike lanes, dedicated vehicle parking lanes, and dedicated centre or left-turn lanes have been added on various sections of Aquitaine Avenue.
Status
The installation of the pilot road reconfiguration is complete. The City will be monitoring road operations throughout 2024 to inform a permanent future road reconstruction. Residents and road users can give feedback through the contact information on this page and future pop-ups or public information sessions.
Public engagement
In March and April, 2024, City staff will host four pop-up information booths where residents can ask questions about the project and give feedback:
- Meadowvale Community Centre – Saturday, March 9 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
