ITEM TI

Re: Prairie ~ Flint Intersection

Considerable concern has been expressed that ‘this
intersection is hazardous to school children attending Viscount .
Elementary School. The Committee feels that. the most beneficial
improvement to the intersection would be the installation of
pedestrian actuated traffic lights. A preliminary estimate
of the cost of installing the lights is $4,000.00 but this
estimate is not based on a complete design of the intersection.
The Committee recommends that pedestrian actuated traffic
lights for the Prairie - Flint intersection be designed and
that a detailed cost estimate be submitted to Council for
approval to proceed as soon as possible. In the meantime the
Committee suggests that School District No. 43 might wish to
consider the establishment of temporary patrols until the light

is operational. .

Respectfully submitted,

V.G. Borch,/p, Eng.,
City Enginéer.
