The pedestrian bridge that joins Gravelle Street and Drake Street was recently deemed unsafe and is now closed for usage. The City is working on getting engineering consultation and council approval for rebuilding of the bridge but I was told it could take utnil the Fall or later for this to be completed. This is unacceptable! The bridge is an integral part of our neighbourhood! It is used by our children to walk to and from school and friend's houses (without having to travel on busy main roads), it is used by people exercising, walking dogs and getting to work. Please join me in showing support for getting the bridge rebuilt quickly. Council will need to find and approve the funds for this so this petition would go a long way to show them how important it is!

The volume of support has secured us a formal meeting with the city engineering department next week. I am currently finalizing a proposal to present that accelerates the reconstruction timeline beyond the current autumn projections.

Fall is way to late. This is a vital walking path for the neighborhood. Fix it now.

I walk my dog over this bridge all the time. Need it back open asap, such an inconvenience for everyone on this side of town.

my kids use this bridge every single day to get to school. how are they supposed to cross now? walking near the main road is way too dangerous.
