On the agenda
As the city filed it
The Leslieville area currently has three Accessible Pedestrian Signals (APS). There are numerous senior's homes in close proximity in this area and seniors make up a significant percentage of pedestrian traffic. Leslieville's proximity to the downtown core, high vehicular traffic and high percentage of senior residents make it a prime candidate for further APS installation. Two local students undertook a study and identified six locations where the installation of APS is crucial to ensure the safety of residents, especially seniors, in the community.
