Downtown Revitalization Project Preferred Alternative
During the Municipal Class Environmental Assessments (MCEA) process, different design concepts were considered. These included maintaining one-way traffic on both Colborne Street and Dalhousie Street, versus having two-way traffic. Additionally, there were different parking and cycling lane configurations to be reviewed.
Preferred alternative
The preferred alternative, after much consideration, is to maintain the present one-way traffic configuration on both Colborne Street and Dalhousie Street. Each street will have a two-vehicular lane cross-section and one dedicated cycle lane. Parking will be available on both sides of the streets through parking laybys.
