New Pedestrian Crossover for Ormond St/Front Ave/Charlotte Place to be Installed in Early July

Council Decides to Refer Changes to Apple Street Back to the General Committee

Brockville – In 2024, city staff were directed to investigate the possibility of erecting four-way stops in response to traffic challenges identified by residents at two locations in the city, crossing Ormond Street at Charlotte Place/Front Ave. and Water Street and Apple Street.

In a report to the General Committee in September, staff recommended alternative options to the suggested four-way stops, including the installation of a pedestrian crossover on Ormond Street at Charlotte Place and establishing Apple Street as a one-way northbound-only street.

At Tuesday’s City Council meeting, councillors decided to refer the changes at Apple Street back to the General Committee for further consideration after feedback from the public.

The new pedestrian crossover on Ormond Street at Charlotte Place/Front Ave. is expected to be installed by early July.
