Thank you to everyone who participated in the public engagement activities regarding the proposed traffic calming measures for Riverside.
Here is an overview of the process, where we are now, and what to expect next:
Concept – 2024-25
Traffic calming poll held in Fall, 2024, with 82% of respondents indicating their support for a traffic calming program in Riverside
Initial public workshop held in March, 2025, which saw residents provide input into areas of concern, and locations and types of traffic calming methods they preferred
Based on the feedback from the workshop, the project team developed an initial concept plan for residents of Riverside to comment on
Survey – August-September 2025
Concept feedback survey held August 26-September 18, with 62 residents providing 259 comments to refine the initial concept plan
Review Results – Fall 2025/Winter 2026
City of St. Albert and its consultants have reviewed the feedback
Develop Plans – Fall 2025/Winter 2026
Plans were developed based on feedback, accepted traffic standards and City policies
Temporary Measures (WE ARE HERE) – Fall 2026/Spring 2027
Temporary traffic calming measures aligned with the developed plans for curb extensions at pedestrian crossings, road markings and warnings will be installed in fall 2026.
Temporary measures aligned with the developed plans for vertical measures, such as speed cushions, will be installed in spring 2027.
Time will be allowed through 2027 for a trial period during which any observations and changes can be made.
Vertical temporary measures (speed cushions) will be removed for winter operations (winter 2027/2028).
Public Feedback – Winter 2027/2028
Public feedback will be sought regarding the temporary measures installed before permanent construction begins. Feedback may also be received and reviewed during the trial period to inform adjustments to temporary measures.
Watch for information about this public input opportunity to be sent to households.
Permanent Measures (Subject to Feedback and Budget) – 2028/2029
The construction of permanent measures is dependent on the results of resident engagement and budget availability. Therefore, temporary measures may be used until funding becomes available, with applicable changes to temporary measures based on resident feedback.
For further information, please refer to the attached What We Heard Report for Riverside, as well as an overall summary of what we heard from all four neighbourhoods polled.
