We're updating traffic calming measures in Strathcona, focusing on local residential streets between Prior/Venables St, Clark Dr, E Hastings St, and Gore Ave.
Informed by community engagement, 5 traffic calming measures are being advanced.
These measures aim to reduce vehicle volumes and speeds on local residential streets and are to be implemented using temporary materials later in 2022.
What's happeningImproving traffic management in Strathcona
From summer 2023 to winter 2024, we have been installing traffic calming measures in Strathcona. Here’s an update on the progress:
- 30km/h speed zone for the neighbourhood – implemented in 2023.
- One-way southbound on Campbell Avenue – implemented in 2023.
- Painted crosswalk at E Pender Street and Dunlevy Avenue – upgraded to a raised intersection with curb bulges, to be completed by spring 2025.
- Chicane on Campbell Avenue between E Georgia and Keefer Street – alternative speed reduction measures to be implemented in 2025.
- Roadway narrowing on Glen Drive at E Georgia Street – on hold due to construction at 1120 E Georgia.
Two additional measures have been provided next to the elementary schools:
- Speed humps installed on 600 Glen Drive next to Admiral Seymour Elementary.
- Strathcona Elementary participated in the School Street program in spring 2023 and 2024.
