The Township of West Lincoln (West Lincoln) has initiated the development of a Road Safety Study and Action Plan. The Study aims to guide long-term mobility safety policy and investment decisions to ultimately reduce traffic-related injuries and fatalities across both urban and rural areas of West Lincoln while supporting Township’s broader strategic infrastructure goals and road network priorities. West Lincoln has engaged LEA Consulting Ltd. to undertake the Study.
The Study will look at opportunities to improve overall road safety conditions for all users, and will include but not be limited to the following project goals:
The Township of West Lincoln values the voice of its residents and is dedicated to fostering open, accessible, and inclusive public dialogue. The Project Team will engage and collaborate with the public and various stakeholders to learn about current road safety concerns and discuss potential solutions to support a safe transportation network.
Two (2) Public Information Centre (PIC) sessions will be held for this Study. The first PIC will introduce the Study and provide an opportunity for residents to share their input regarding road safety concerns. The second PIC will be held further into the study process to present recommendations and receive feedback on the proposed safety improvements.
