Students from the nearby Lambton Park Community School (located at 50 Bernice Crescent) use the pedestrian crossover, which is located closer to the school than the proposed traffic control signals. Parents of students from Lambton Park Community School and members of the community have expressed concerns regarding the removal of the pedestrian crossover due to the potential of children crossing the road unsafely as the proposed traffic control signal will be located further away from Bernice Crescent.
