ITEM I

Re: Request for New STOP Signs

The new frontage road known as the Lougheed-Meridian
Road is now paved and open to traffic and requires a STOP sign
at its intersection with Coast Meridian Road. The Committee
recomiends that this STOP sign be installed. :

The Committee also had requests for STOP signs on.
Vincent at Grant and on Fraser at Newberry Street. The Comm-
ittee did not feel that stop signs were warranted at this time
and decided to review the request in six months.

ITEM IT

Re: Loading Zone at McAllister Plaza

Alderman Mabbett had requested a report on relocating
the loading zone at McAllister Plaza from McAllister Avenue to
Donald Street in order to create more angle parking spaces on
McAllister. In considering this request the Committee looked at
the present visibility problem at the intersection of Donald and
McAllister. The absence of parking on the east side of the inter-
section helps traffic which is emerging from Donald Street .to
get out of the intersection. If parking were allowed the visi-
bility to the east would be as bad as it now is to the west and
it would be twice as difficult to get out.

The Committee also took into consideration that the
proposed scheme has existed at one time in the past and was
changed because there was a problem there.

The Committee recommends no changes to the parking on
McAllister.
