Enhanced Pedestrian Safety and Street Lighting in Newtonbrook East

From "PB 2026: Share Your Ideas, Newtonbrook East!"

Go to the project

I propose the installation of additional high-efficiency LED street lights and pedestrian-activated crosswalk signals at key intersections in our neighborhood. Many residents, including seniors and students, walk to local parks and schools daily. Improved lighting and safer crossings will reduce the risk of accidents and discourage antisocial behavior in darker areas. This project directly supports the "Vision Zero" safety goals and makes our streets more walkable and inclusive for everyone

Did you have any spots in mind for pedestrian crossings? I think that Willowdale/Newton could use one, as well as Cummer/Silverview (right across from the park entrance). The point where the hydro trail crosses Maxome may also benefit from a crossing signal, especially considering it's close to a school. I see lots of students walking/biking home from the school there throughout the year.
