A victim of impaired driving will be remembered in Niagara Falls.

Regional Council has approved in installation of a Mothers Against Drunk Driving sign at the corner of Taylor Road and Mountain Road in Niagara Falls.

It's the same location where Jessica Edwards was hit by a drunk driver on February 24th, 2017.

She passed away in hospital afterwards.

Her father, Robin Edwards, requested the sign during last night's virtual council meeting.

"I do not want any family to go through this again. If this sign changes peoples perspective then it might just save lives."

The sign will be installed for five years.
