I'm trying to dig out what optimization changes in total are being contemplated for the area - having difficult finding them - they may be contained within the development's Transportation Impact Assessment. Nonetheless, through an approved motion arising related to Shawnee slopes here are some of the other transportation improvements being formally explored...
I'll try and find some of the other changes proposed for the area.
MOTION ARISING, Moved by Alderman Colley-Urquhart, Seconded by Alderman Demong, that with respect to Bylaws 23P2012, 51D2012, 52D2012, 53D2012 and 54D2012, Council adopt the following:
That Administration, in conjunction with the Shawnee Park development, consider and investigate the implementation of the following traffic mitigation measures:
a. Restrict northbound left turns at the intersection of Bannister Road and 145th Avenue along with traffic signals at Bannister Road and 149th Avenue.
c. Identify potential cost effective traffic improvements, funding sources (including but not limited to Optimization funding), and consider other mitigation strategies along Macleod Trail including but not limited to:
I. The optimization and reconfiguring of the Lake Fraser Gate intersection to consider allowing 4 northbound through lanes.
II. The provision of a 4th continuous northbound through lane on Macleod Trail under Canyon Meadows Drive.
