Back in February of 2024, a pilot project was introduced for Trille Des Bois Elementary School in Vanier, located just a few blocks south of Beechwood Avenue. Alice Street, which is where the front of the school is located, is a pretty busy spot for vehicle traffic. But during pick-up and drop-off times during school days, temporary barriers were installed to keep motor vehicle traffic off the road. That pilot project, however, was never adopted. Rideau-Vanier councillor Stephanie Plante believes this initiative could be conducted by a third-party group, and is frustrated that the municipality isn\u2019t taking a leadership role on this. Michelle Mora, who has two kids currently attending Trille Des Bois Elementary, fears the worst-case outcome is inevitable unless action is taken soon.
