50 Street and Memorial Trail Roundabout

The Town is building a roundabout at Memorial Trail and 50 Street. The roundabout upgrade:

Improves traffic flow: Smoother and faster movement of vehicles through the intersection, reducing delays and congestion
Enhances safety for all users: Lowers the risk of collisions by providing a more controlled and predictable traffic pattern
Grows with the Town: Ensures that the intersection can accommodate increased traffic

The intersection is nearing capacity limits and needs upgrading as soon as possible. The Town is planning now:

To avoid delays: Starting the design of the roundabout so the Town is “shovel ready” when funding is secured
For future growth: The upgrade prepares the intersection for community growth including:
- New developments along the Memorial Trail corridor
- Increasing traffic along 50 Street during peak tourist season
- Population growth

Stage 1: One lane roundabout

One lane roundabout designed to expand into 2 lane easily. This allows expenses to be spread over more time
Stage one includes an optional pathway that extends along 50 Street from Beacon Hill Drive to Memorial Trail. Completing the pathway depends on the available budget and may be implemented as a separate project in future
Stage one does not change any existing driveway access to 50 Street and Memorial Trail
The Roundabout project is planned alongside the 50 Street redevelopment project.
Phase 1a: Preliminary Design and Engagement (May - Sep 2025)
- Status: Underway
Phase 1b: Detailed Design & Tender Package (TBD)
- Status: Planning
Phase 2: Construction (2028)
- Roundabout at 50 Street and Memorial Trail
- Status: Planning

Stage 2: Two-lane roundabout

Once growth demands 2 lanes to accommodate increased traffic
No estimated start date
A two-lane roundabout at 50 Street and Memorial Trail
Widening of Memorial Trail and 50 Street to 4 lanes and other associated upgrades
