Mark Masanovich, one of four candidates for Ward 10 councillor, posted a four-page release on his campaign website this week proposing a "Mobility and Safety Plan" for the ward. It is a campaign pledge, not City policy.
What the release proposes
The release names six corridors: Grand Marais Road, Dominion Boulevard, Northwood Street, North Service Road, Labelle Street and Edinborough Street, plus the intersections that connect them. It proposes a traffic and safety audit of those corridors using traffic volumes, collision information, vehicle speeds, pedestrian activity and transit data.
It also calls for a review of arterial and collector road connections planned in the City's Official Plan and secondary plans, to decide which unfinished links are still needed or now warrant construction. Other items include a review of signal timing, protected left turns, sightlines and crossing times at major intersections; marked crossings, curb ramps and missing sidewalk links; a connected cycling network; bus stop placement and accessibility; and a public priority list showing each major project's cost, funding source and timeline.
"Transportation planning in Ward 10 cannot disappear into a report for another decade," Masanovich says in the release. The release does not give an overall cost for the plan. An earlier platform document on his site names Grand Marais Road, Dominion Boulevard between Totten and Ojibway, and Edinborough Street as first road priorities.
