In 2015 and 2016, The City met twice with community stakeholders and three times with the Business Revitalization Zone to develop an improvement plan. The public is invited to a workshop to learn about the project and provide feedback on intersection design options, proposed parking changes, pedestrian, pathway and streetscape improvements and bicycle facilities.
Bowwood Drive N.W. and 33 Avenue N.W.
The work on Bowness Road N.W. also provides an opportunity to save costs on adjacent improvements that would resolve community concerns. The intersections of Bowwood Drive / 36 Avenue / 64 Street N.W. and Bowwood Drive / 33 Avenue N.W. have been identified to be reconfigured to improve safety. Speed humps are also planned on 33 Avenue N.W. near River Valley School to reduce speeding in the playground zone.
