Rules of the Road
nd various pedestrian destinations. Touchless Accessible Pedestrian Signals Many signalized
intersections have a button you may push to activate the WALK/DON’TWALK pedestrian signal. If the button is pushed, the WALK signal could stay on longer to allow you the extra time to cross the
street. If the button is not pushed, more ‘green’ time could be given to motorists. This allows
more traffic to travel through the intersection and reduces congestion. If you are at a signalized
intersection with a pedestrian push button, you must use it or you will not get a WALK signal allowing you to cross. For some intersections that have heavy
pedestrian volume, pedestrian phase could be provided every phase during off peak hours.
Understanding Pedestrian Signals Pedestrian signals tell you when it is safe to cross: A "WALK" or “WALKING SYMBOL” means you may
begin crossing. A flashing "DON'T WALK" or flashing “HAND SYMBOL”
serves as a warning that it is to late to begin to cross the street. However, if you entered the
cross walk before the signal began to flash, you should have enough
time to cross the street. A solid "DON'T WALK" or solid ‘HAND SYMBOL”
indicates that it is unsafe to cross the street. You should wait until the WALK signal appears again before crossing the street. Pedestrian Push Buttons at
Signalized Intersections Signs Construction and detour signs are posted to warn you that road work
is being done in the area. You must obey the speed limits posted on the signs, as these limits
ensure the safety of workers and other motorists. Even if you cannot see any activity in a
construction zone, you should reduce your speed to the posted limit because other hazards – like
gravel chips and uneven pavement – may be present and cause damage to your vehicle if you are
travelling at high speeds. You should also leave plenty of space between road crews/equipment and
your vehicle when going through a construction zone and obey all directions by flag people.
Construction & Detour Signs Children at Play signs are not part of the Canadian Manual of
Uniform Traffic Control Devices, and therefore, are not used by the City of Regina. If you can buy
it, its not legal. These signs are not recommended for municipalities because: studies show these
signs have no effect on motorists to control speeding motorists need to watch for children playing
near every residential street, and not just the street where the sign is located these types of
signs suggest to children that it’s okay to play on the street, which is not the case The City of
Regina only posts warning signs when motorists need to be advised of unusual or unexpected
conditions. Children at Play Signs Learn more about no parking and no stopping zones. No Parking:
Vehicles can only stop briefly to drop someone off or pick someone up in this zone. You may not
park your vehicle and wait for someone. No Stopping: Vehicles must not stop here for any reason,
including dropping off or picking up passengers. You may only stop here to obey traffic signals or
signs, for emergency personnel, traffic flow, or due to an emergency. You must remain behind the
wheel of your vehicle as it is illegal to stay parked for any length of time. Additionally, your
vehicle must be moved immediately should traffic conditions warrant or if you are directed to do so
by parking enforcement personnel. As well, you cannot park your vehicle: within 10m of an
intersection with a painted crosswalk on the continuous side between the painted crosswalks at a “T”
intersection within 2m of a fire hydrant in an alley unless the vehicle is being actively loaded
or unloaded and is not blocking traffic within 3m of an alley that intersects with a street within
2m of any private driveway more than 0.6m away from the curb No Stopping or No Parking Signs Stop
signs, 2-way stops, 3-way stops, and 4-way stops assign the right-of-way at that intersection and
help to control traffic at busy intersections. Some people feel that installing a stop sign or
all-way stop on their street will reduce speeding, however, this is not usually the case. Studies
have shown that stop signs are ineffective at controlling speed along a street. Most motorists will
speed up after they stop, and in many cases, actually drive faster to make up for the delay. Stop
Signs: A stop sign may create more hazards if installed in the wrong place. As stated above, it may
actually increase speeding. As well, motorists may ignore the stop sign if the intersection is
always empty, thus becoming a danger to pedestrians and other motorists. All-Way Stops: The City of
Regina uses a warrant standard developed by the Transportation Association of Canada to determine
if an intersection should receive an all-way stop (e.g., 2-way, 3-way, 4-way). This standard
considers the traffic volumes on the streets, the number of right-angle collisions, and speed
limits. All-way stops are only installed at locations where two major streets intersect and traffic
volumes on each street are about equal. If traffic volumes were not equal, the all-way stop would
create unnecessary delays to the major flow of traffic. If you feel an intersection should be
evaluated for an all-way stop warrant, submit a Service Request with the relevant information. Stop
Signs & All-way Stops Traffic The City of Regina constantly studies traffic flow, volumes and
speeds to ensure the most efficient and safe movement of motorists and pedestrians in Regina. Speed
limits are determined based on provincial legislation and/or established North American traffic
engineering procedures. If a situation warrants it, the City of Regina can monitor and investigate
traffic volumes and speeds to determine if changes should be made. Monitoring Traffic Flow &
Speed Limits The Traffic Bylaw identifies the speed limits for all roads in our community. These
speed limits are determined based on dry pavement conditions. Within city limits, the default speed
limit on all roads is 50 km/h unless otherwise posted. School zones are maximum 30 km/h as
indicated by signage. Playground zones are maximum 30 km/hr or as indicated by signage. Refer to
the Traffic Bylaw for information. Speed is enforced by Regina Police Service. Alleys are maximum
30 km/h. Construction zones with temporary speed reductions for safety must also be observed. All
motorists are expected to reduce their speed in adverse weather conditions. The authority to change
the legal speed limit on Regina roads rests with City Council, however, Administration makes
recommendations on appropriate speed limits. Determining Speed Limits Calculating a recommended
speed limit for a particular street is influenced by: roadway geometry adjacent land use traffic
volumes accident history established North American traffic engineering procedures In North
America, the procedure to establish an appropriate speed limit is based on the “85th percentile
speed” principle. This means the speed limit will be set as near as practical to the speed at which
85% of vehicles are travelling along that road. Experience across North America has shown that 85%
of drivers will operate their vehicle at a speed that is reasonable and prudent. Requests to Lower
or Increase Speed Limits You may think lowering the posted speed limit will discourage speeding
along your street. However, this is normally not the case. Research has shown that drivers will
drive at a speed which they are comfortable with, regardless of the posted speed limit. In fact,
unrealistically low speed limits can invite violation by responsible drivers and create new
problems in our neighbourhoods: Artificially low speed limits increase the difference between the
fastest and slowest drivers which has been proven to reduce safety. Artificially low speed limits
lead to shortcutting on nearby streets. Increasing speed limits may also not be feasible depending
on roadway geometry, adjacent land use, or previous accident history for that street. ...

Māmowimīwēyitamōwin Park
the buffalo are not here on this land as they used to be in the millions, they are still in our
hearts, our memories, our stories, songs and dances. Walk the
outline of the Buffalo Effigy to feel that energy and spirit of the buffalo returning. Walking it will activate the effigy and the call for the buffalo to return to
this land. There are bird houses in the trees and snags near the buffalo willows. These represent
the bird garden for this park. Where there are buffaloes there are always buffalo birds. We are
honouring those connections to the land and species that have been reliant on the buffalo for
millennia. Thank you to Joel Mowchenko of the Treaty Land Sharing Network for his support and in
providing the boulders for this project. The Flower of Life Brianne LaPlante (in Partnership with
Buckets & Borders for “The Yard” Basketball Court restoration), 2022 In 2022 Buckets &
Borders worked with Brianna LaPlant to create the mural on the basketball court within
Māmowimīwēyitamōwin Park. Brianne is a fine artist from Fishing Lake First Nation and grew up in
Regina playing basketball in North Central at the Regent Park courts. Her work is predominantly
within the two-dimensional realm, bringing spaces to life through the choices of line, colour,
pattern, and symbolism. Artwork is an act of lifelong learning and resilience for her as an
Anishinaabe/Nehiyaw/Metis creator. The Flower of Life represents the cycle of creation and the many
paths we cross within our individual spheres as a community. Buffalo Futurism Experience
