Road-Work

By Nick Liard

City staff in Greater Sudbury are looking into ways to improve the construction site on Elgin Street between St Anne and Elm, especially after a fatality last week.

Reps with the Downtown Business Improvement Association (BIA) met with Mayor Brian Bigger this week to look at ways to improve pedestrian access, communication and timing of the project.

They also discussed how the city can address challenges for both pedestrians and businesses, while the work is going on.

Regular meetings -which will also include the contractor, Interpaving, will continue until the project is finished.

The investigation into the 58-year-old female pedestrian’s death continues.
