Segment 1 - 24 Street to 20A Street N.W.

Segment 1 of 14 Avenue N.W. spans a distance of approximately 680 metres from 24 Street N.W. to east of 20A Street N.W. within the residential neighbourhood of Hounsfield Heights - Briar Hill. Segment 1 features connection points to the current Crowchild Trail Pedestrian Overpass, transit stops, and connections to neighbourhood amenities including Briar Hill Elementary School and Hounsfield Heights Park. The Crowchild Trail Pedestrian Overpass has been proposed at 12 Avenue N.W. with a ramp running north to connect to 13 Avenue N.W. at grade, with proposed on-street bikeways connecting the ramp to both 14 Avenue N.W. and 12 Avenue N.W. The proposed upgrades consider existing and future connections to the Crowchild Trail Pedestrian Overpass and larger regional networks.

We heard from community members that it is important to consider connection points to the Crowchild Trail Pedestrian Overpass, safety at crosswalks near the Briar Hill School, general sidewalk improvements, traffic calming, concerns related to the narrowness of the roadway, and a range of perspectives on parking—some community members expressed a desire to maintain parking, while others supported its removal.
