Phase 2 Public Engagement: Online Survey

Welcome to the online survey for the Windsor Street Exchange Redevelopment Project. This engagement phase will share concept design options for the project and gather feedback from the public and stakeholders. Along with other considerations such as efficiency, cost, and impacts to different transportation modes, feedback from the public will be used to help the project team determine the preferred option (Option A or Option B). The project team will then refine the preferred option and we expect to hold the next phase of public engagement in Spring of 2022 to gather feedback from stakeholders and the public on the preliminary design.

The primary objective of this project is to improve the functionality of the Windsor Street Exchange, recognizing there are many demands on the intersection and surrounding area, including the movement of people and goods in cars, trucks, buses, and on bikes, on foot, and using mobility devices. Two concept design options have been developed for the project; please watch this video on the concept designs prior to completing this survey.

The municipality is simultaneously working on a project to provide active transportation connections between the Africville National Historic Site and the rest of Peninsular Halifax. The primary objective of this project is to provide safe and comfortable access for people walking, biking, or using mobility devices to the National Historic Site. HRM will be considering this project throughout the evolution of the Windsor Street Exchange Redevelopment.
