Have Your Say!

The City of Edmonton has an initiative called Edmonton Insight Community designed to be a way to engage Edmontonians to help build a better city. Participants are invited to complete surveys on a wide range of topics at least once a month to provide vital feedback to the City of Edmonton. Signup for Edmonton Insight Community

Transportation

Valuable traffic safety information is available from the City of Edmonton Office of Traffic Safety.

Visit this City of Edmonton page to find out more about the plans to extend the LRT from Century Park to Heritage Valley.

Traffic

If you have concerns about signage, crosswalks, signals, noise, or vehicles speeding and/or cutting through your neighbourhood, please visit the City of Edmonton website. There you will find a lot of information, including the Safe Speeds Toolkit program. This program includes the option to request temporary Driver Feedback Sign and community lawn signs.

Another Community Activation program is the Vision Zero Street Labs program, which includes adaptable traffic calming measures such as rubber speed humps and curb extensions to address traffic safety concerns in residential neighbourhoods.

The Edmonton Police Service now encourages residents to submit their concerns/complaints directly to the Traffic Section by filling out the Online Traffic Concern Form.  This allows them to collect data directly from Edmontonians to better assist with traffic enforcement deployment.
