  • Share Curious why there are pedestrian crossing lights on the north and east crossings of Victoria circle but not south and west? We have seen a few close calls when vehicles didn't yield to pedestrians on the south crosswalk.

    That’s a great question! The type of crosswalk treatment (signs and pavement markings, low flashing lights, high flashing light) is determined based on national standards that take different factors into account. These include pedestrian counts; vehicle counts and visibility. The locations that do have the pedestrian activated signals met the warrant for this type of treatment. City staff do however revisit and reassess as time goes on so if/ when the other crossing meet the criteria we would install them on the other corners as well.

    What are the defined (dates and actions) plans to improve the safety of the Northside trails- both along the river and the upper paved paths?

    Mary Coady asked 20 days ago

    Thank you for your question. Ensuring safety along the northside trails is a priority, but specific actions and timelines can vary based on seasonal and situational factors. Currently, the CSSU (Community Safety Services Unit) patrols the trail system, but there are no targeted actions specific to the northside trails at this time. From now until April, patrols primarily focus on the two downtown cores (Downtown Fredericton and Business Fredericton North), and trail monitoring is typically in response to specific complaints. Once conditions improve, regular foot and e-bike patrols along the trails are expected to resume in the spring. As of now, there is an ongoing trail lighting enhancing on going from the Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge through University Ave. Our next phase of trail lighting upgrades will be from the end of the Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge to Gibson Street (near Devon Ave.) Plans for strengthening safety starting in April will depend on circumstances at that time, but we remain committed to addressing concerns and ensuring these spaces are safe and enjoyable for everyone.

    Thank you for your question! These parking spots are only available at off peak hours and were added to sneak in a little more parking in our downtown in order to support local businesses. Should you have any further questions you can reach out to traffic@fredericton.ca
