Council approves commemorative crosswalks

Prince George city council approved the installation of commemorative crosswalks at three locations to recognize the service and sacrifice of veterans, in partnership with the Royal Canadian Legion.

The report said the three proposed locations for the crosswalks are: 

1. Ospika Blvd at CN Centre Access (site of a military training facility during the Second World War); 

2. George Street at Sixth Avenue (near Veterans Plaza); and 

3. Dagg Rd at Glenview Dr (near Darren Fitzpatrick Park)

The estimated additional annual cost to implement the three crosswalks with standard pavement marking paint is $2,000 (the regular white crosswalk paint).   The estimated additional cost for high-durability MMA cold plastic paint (used for the coloured design on the three crosswalks) is $15,500 and would be redone every three to five years.   All of these costs will be absorbed within the existing 2026 Roads Operating Budget under the Pavement Marking Program.
