“The whole neighbourhood is not happy about council’s decision,” said Alan Kenney, a resident who lives in the area.
Kenney cites increased traffic and pedestrian safety as his two biggest concerns. He says the streets already narrow and do not have sidewalks, making it challenging for pedestrians.
“Once these new developments go in, it will not be safe for any pedestrians at all,” said Kenney.
Why don’t they widen the road or at least ad sidewalks? I imagine the city has the ability to at leat do sidewalks since usually the first x feet from centre of road they have the right of way on.
