Collier Street is currently designated as a Collector roadway. The proposed designation as a Pedestrian Way would prohibit access to motor vehicle traffic, while continuing to allow access to pedestrians and people cycling, emergency and maintenance vehicles and would provide additional public open space between Church Street and Park Road. Motor vehicle traffic on Collier Street is currently restricted between Church Street and a point 28 metres east of Church Street (the west entry drive at 66 Collier Street), due to construction staging. This Council approved restriction is in effect until January 31, 2027.
