Thank you for your comment.

City staff are aware of this issue and before a crosswalk is implemented, certain requirements are assessed. This assessment may included but not limited to the undertaking of traffic counts (volume of both pedestrian and vehicular traffic) at this location and reviewing of the traffic speed along 108 Street.

We do apologize for the inconvenience and we ask that you do utilize this intersection as an unmarked crosswalk where as per 'Alberta's Driver Guide to Operations, Safety and Licensing' "the pedestrian indicate their intention to cross by raising an arm at a right angle and pointing to the opposite curb. As well as ensure the vehicular traffic has stopped and you are able to cross without delay.

A traffic impact study for 102 Street was undertaken and can be found on the City's website at http://www.cityofgp.com/index.aspx?page=341 identifying that any upgrades to be undertaken at 116 Avenue & 105 Street will occur simultaneous with any upgrades to be undertaken at 116 Avenue & 102 Street.

Similarly, Royal Oaks and 102 Street was also part of the 102 Street Traffic Study and the recommendation identified that stop control is adequate, however, crosswalk implantation would be reviewed and addressed if required.
