The proposed location and design of the access points have accounted for local traffic conditions and will help to minimize any impacts on the surrounding road network.

The proposed Roseland Drive access is not expected to create congestion or traffic impacts with pedestrians/cyclists. This has been verified through the completed TIS. Appropriate traffic calming measures and signage can be implemented to ensure drivers are cogniza nt of children in the neighborhood and cautious while entering and exiting the site.
