We have launched a public engagement process to collect feedback on two options being considered for the Canada Drive Active Transportation & Road Safety Improvement project. Active transportation means using your own power to get from one place to another and includes walking, running, biking, and rolling.

Two options are being considered:

Option One – Adding a bidirectional bike path on one side of the street, sidewalks on both sides of the street and allowing parking on the south side only (odd numbered houses). 

Option Two – Adding a shared-use path (SUP) on one side of the street, sidewalk on the other side of the street with parking allowed on both sides. 

How to provide public feedback
 
The public are encouraged to visit EngageStJohns.ca to:

  • Learn about the project, view the two options being considered and vote for their preference. Signage showing the two options can be found on Canada Drive as well.
  • Register to attend the virtual meeting on Thursday, May 12 from 7 to 8:30 p.m.
  • If you do not have online access, please call 311 or 754-CITY (2489) to speak to a member of the project team or send your feedback via email engage@stjohns.ca

Public input will be used to finalize a recommendation to Council and will be applied to all sections of Canada Drive as work is completed.
