Since nominations opened in July, all members of the community have been invited to submit names for the North Commuter Parkway Bridge that either acknowledge an Aboriginal historical event or figure, represent the spirit of community, coming together, or connection.
A series of public information sessions are being planned in October for citizens to get involved with naming the North Commuter Parkway Bridge.
Following the incident Monday at Dundonald Park, representatives of the City and Saskatoon Public School Division administrations met this afternoon to discuss safety reviews underway within each organization.
“We both agree that working together on the review of this tragedy and to come up with rationale and timely recommendations to increase safety in our community, is in everyone’s best interest,” says City Manager Murray Totland.
The City and public school officials will compile a diverse team for the comprehensive review.
