Survey

This project builds on the conceptual design for Charlotte Street East (Aylmer Street North to Water Street) completed in 2018, which focused on creating an accessible corridor with shared spaces for pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles, while also providing a flexible public space that can be easily adapted to accommodate community events.

The survey builds upon the concept design, and feedback received through earlier engagement efforts. Your input will help us verify the results of the previous consultation, understand how you use Charlotte Street East, inform the development of the detailed design, and support decision-making.

This survey should take about 10 minutes to complete.

Be sure to fill out the survey by: September 14, 2026.
