Public invited to discuss plans to make dangerous Saanich intersection safer

Pat Bay Highway at Sayward Road topic of Feb. 29 open house from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Cordova Bay Community Place.

Changes are coming to the notoriously dangerous intersection of the Pat Bay Highway at Sayward Road.

A working group compromised of community members, Saanich councillors, ministry of transportation and B.C. Transit reps and MLA Lana Popham has come up with a number of options to help make the intersection a little safer.

"One of the main concerns I've heard is that the feel of Cordova Bay shouldn't change due to traffic safety improvements. That's probably the loudest message I'm hearing," Popham said.

An open house will be held Feb. 29 for the public to see what changes are being proposed, and to chat with members of the working group.

The open house runs from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Cordova Bay Community Place (5238 Cordova Bay Rd.).

For more information, contact Popham's constituency office at 250-479-4154.
