Canonsburg Council Approves Safety Measures

The Canonsburg Borough Council has approved several measures to improve public safety, upgrade community spaces, and facilitate local events. Council passed an ordinance to prohibit parking at all times on the east side of Summit Avenue between Morgan Street and Taylor Alley due to traffic flow and safety concerns for emergency vehicles. The council also authorized a $125,000 grant application to the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources for park upgrades at Canonsburg Town Park. The project, totaling $250,000, includes adding three permanent concrete restrooms, a new pool liner, pavilion updates, upgraded camera systems, and an additional softball field, set to be used this season. In other matters, Canonsburg Council authorized Remington and Vernick Engineers to advertise the 2025 Road Project, which will pave Joseph Drive, John Drive, and Lucia Drive. The council also approved road closures for several community events, including the 4th of July Parade, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation marathon on September 13, Oktoberfest from September 19 to 21, and Canonsburg’s Old Fashioned Christmas from December 4 to 6. Additionally, Borough Council approved Canonsburg Fire Department’s roving road closure for Memorial Day. Council also approved the request of Dutch Man Britches LLC to hang Christmas lights between the Colaizzo building and Canon Corner from November 15, 2025 to January 26, 2026.
