Further to reaffirming the existing Policy, discussion with respect to the criteria for installing illumination at intersections resulted in a motion that: "Staff report on the traffic counts for Regional intersections in order to determine whether the criteria for illumination at intersections should include traffic counts. " The Region, will now assemble the required information and report back to council through the Works Committee later this year.
