INVITATION TO ATTEND AN OPEN HOUSE

KEEWATIN/ELGIN MEDIAN CLOSURE

DATE: July 19, 2011
LOCATION: Weston Memorial Community Centre (Logan Avenue at McKelvey Street)
TIME: 7:00 P.M.

Last fall the Alexander/Pacific active transportation bike route was being built in your neighborhood. This path extends from Princess Street to King Edward Street and is intended to serve as an important east/west cycling route that allows cyclists to avoid streets with heavy motor vehicle traffic. One part of the construction of the bike path involved the closure of the median on Keewatin Street at Elgin Avenue. The purpose of the closure was to provide cyclists with a safe place to wait to cross Keewatin Street. At the time of construction, some area residents expressed a concern about the closure of the median. Councillor Fielding committed to have the Public Works Department monitor the closure and then convene an open house with the area residents. The purpose of the open house is to get your feedback on the closure.
