Letter to neighbours on Lagoon Road

Dear Neighbour:

Re: Lagoon Road active transportation upgrades scheduled for construction in Summer 2022

We’re planning to upgrade the road corridor in your neighbourhood!

Improvements are planned along Lagoon Road to improve pedestrian and cycling access. This is one of the projects in the City’s ongoing program of active transportation upgrades planned over the next 10 years and beyond.

The preliminary plans for the Lagoon Road upgrades may include:

• Raised concrete sidewalks on the South side of Lagoon Road from Heatherbell Road to Aloha Avenue, tying into existing sidewalks
• Potential for streeetscape enhancements, crosswalks, bus stop improvments, drainage and boulevard restoration

These improvements are important for the many pedestrians and cyclists travelling in the area and to enhance the connectivity for active transportation throught the City and greater community.

In order to start the designs of the upgrades, the City would like to hear your thoughts, concerns and suggestions in ways we can design the upgrades and accommodate you needs throughout construction.

Please visit LetsTalkColwood.ca to voice your opinions and for more details and ongoing project updates. Staff will be monitoring community feedback over the course of design and will inform the community when designs have been drafted for further input.

If you have additional questions about the project, please contact Colwood Engineering at 250-478-5999 or engineering@colwood.ca.
