Moved by Councillor Giberson
Carried
That the Oshawa Active Transportation Advisory Committee recommend to the Economic and Development Services Committee: That based on Report OATAC-23-21, the following comments be provided to the Region of Durham regarding the Wentworth Street Reconstruction: Cedar Street to Farewell Street: That the limit of the reduction of the number of auto lanes from four to two is strongly supported and should be at least from Ritson Road to Farewell Street on this Type “C” arterial road; and, The provision of a multi-use path on the north side of Wentworth and a sidewalk on the south side is strongly supported but it does not remove the need for micro- mobility lanes for the entire length of the reconstruction on this Type “C” arterial road with direct driveway access. The road cross-section should be similar to Attachment No. 1; and, That traffic lights be appropriate for the safe cycling across intersecting roads; and, That intersections at all crossing roads be painted and designated as cross-rides; and, That the restoration of all intersecting arterial and collector roads include a multi- use path on one side and a sidewalk on the other side.
