Sidewalks • Given the constrained 18m ROW, a target sidewalk width for downtown streets is main streets is 3m to 5m, depending on pedestrian volumes and sidewalk activities
• 3m+ is necessary to enable street trees
• City standard is minimum 1.8m “clear zone” (for sidewalk maintenance … between fixed obstacles)

Complete Streets Approach Official Plan Policies: • Adopted by Council in order to balance the multiple roles of roads and to offer safety, comfort and convenience to all users
• Policy to be implemented in consultation with stakeholder groups through: – Measuring level of service and quality of service experienced by all road users in order to assess road designs and allocate right-of-way that maximizes the number of people served.
