Consultation has concluded
Whether on foot, cycling or driving, we all have places to be and want to get there safely. Mission residents have reported road safety concerns and submitted them to the City of St. Albert through an application for traffic calming. The neighbourhood was confirmed as eligible for the Traffic Calming Program.
In fall 2024, the City conducted a neighbourhood-wide poll to gauge support for traffic calming in Mission. Similar polls were conducted in three (3) other neighbourhoods: Mission, North Ridge, and Riverside.
Poll Results
For a neighbourhood-wide traffic calming project to advance, both of the following must be met:
A minimum of 40% of neighbourhood households must respond to the poll; and
A minimum of 55% of the responses received must “support” traffic calming.
Mission results
Response rate: 43% of households.
Support Level: 43% of respondents.
While the minimum response rate was met, the support level did not reach the required 55%. As a result, neighbourhood-wide traffic calming in Oakmont did not proceed.
The project is now closed. The City may consider traffic calming measures on individual streets in the future based on further requests and ongoing data collection.
