A new single-lane roundabout now replaces the 4-way intersection at Six Mile Road and Atkins Road in View Royal, a response to what was heard from the community during the Six Mile Corridor Study conducted in 2019.
The roundabout is fully lit with LED streetlights, 3-metre wide pathways and separated crosswalks for pedestrians and cyclists with flashing beacons. There are also red asphalt aprons in the middle circle and corner quadrants help large trucks navigate the lanes safely.
