Bay Street traffic lights activation
Tuesday, December 1, 2020
The City of Sault Ste. Marie provides the following information regarding the new Bay Street corridor:
Beginning today, traffic signals on Bay Street will be activated. Take note that traffic signals that previously existed on Spring and Bay Street have been removed and replaced with a stop sign on Spring street only.
With the completion of Bay Street, there are two new pedestrian cross overs; one on Bay Street at Spring Street and one on Bay Street at Pim Street. Motorists must stop when a pedestrian crossover is activated. Icy and snow conditions may require adjustments to driving when approaching the new pedestrian crossings. Failure to yield at a pedestrian crossover will be subject to a fine of up to $1000 and four demerit points.
Everyone is reminded to take caution and obey all signage and traffic signals while driving through new the Bay Street corridor. The City of Sault Ste. Marie thanks its citizens for their cooperation.
