I would like to see the set of lights crosswalk at the corner of Eckhart & Railway (power St & Vees Dr made much more pedestrian friendly. An overhead walkway would be awesome! I live on Fairway Ave and it it frightening trying to get to the community center or SOEC from Fairway Ave. A set of lights, a crosswalk or Overhead Crosswalk at Oakvilke to get to the Casino, Community Center, hockey rink and SPEC would be fantastic!!
