INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENT STUDY
Main – Pictou – College Intersection
THE PROBLEM: There has been mounting pressures on the street network in the Village of Bible Hill, particularly at the Main Street intersections with Pictou Road and College Road.
THE SOLUTION: Because of growing concern for congestion and need to plan for improvements, WSP Canada Inc. was retained to review traffic projections in the area over the next 20 years. Since the Main – Pictou – College intersection area is a prominent location in the Village, a Village Square concept has been included in the planned intersection improvement plan as a way to encourage future development potential.
PUBLIC INPUT: is vital to understanding local concerns. Please plan to attend a public open house to view the intersection improvement plan and Village Square concept design to discuss your concerns for mobility and related safety in Bible Hill.
Location: Bible Hill Village Hall, 69 Pictou Road, Bible Hill
Date: Wednesday, February 15th 2017
Time: 6:00pm to 8:00pm
