On the agenda

As the city filed it

Three years ago, at the request of the community, an all-way stop sign pilot project was initiated at Oriole Parkway and Tranmer Avenue to address the numerous collisions and near-misses at the intersection. As part of my commitment to providing a thoughtful and evidence-based review of this pilot, I organized a community meeting in collaboration with the Oriole Park Association (OPA), and subsequently created the Oriole Traffic Safety Working Group.

Informed by the advice we received from staff and resident feedback, the Working Group also reviewed the efficiency of the current setup at the intersection of Oriole Parkway and College View Avenue. The pedestrian crosswalk at the intersection was identified by residents as ineffective at providing safe passageway to pedestrians. As we received a petition from over 400 local parents/residents, Transportation Services provided insights on potentially replicating the Tranmer all-way stop pilot at the intersection of Oriole Parkway and College View Avenue and the Working Group agreed to do a 1-year pilot project there too. This is especially important due to it being a daily corridor for many of our local kids who walk to Oriole Park Junior Public School. If during the 12 month trial basis the all-way stop control is found to not be contributing to the safety of the area, a request will be brought to this committee to rescind the all way stop and/or consider other measures.

Staff recommended
