The city of Mississauga has installed a brand new checkerboard sign at the intersection where a vehicle plunged into a pond last Friday, leaving two brothers dead.

City spokesperson Carley Smith DeBenedictis told CBC News on Friday that the city arranged to have the sign put up at the T-shaped intersection of Ninth Line and Thomas Street on Thursday at the direction of Peel Regional Police.

Police are still investigating how the silver BMW that Hamza and Shahrukh Khan were travelling in last Friday became submerged in the Churchill Meadows pond. On Tuesday night, divers recovered the bodies of the two men, who went missing Friday evening after meeting with friends in a Mississauga plaza.

But last Friday's incident isn't the first time a car has gone under in the area. On June 10, marine units were called after a car ended up at the bottom of the same pond overnight. No one was injured in that incident.

Tom Vukovich, a resident of the area, told CBC Toronto he watched as officials recovered that vehicle.

"At nighttime, you don't know. If you're not from here, you don't know the street ends. To regular people the street continues," Vukovich said.

"I think it's time to do something about that. Put a barrier or something. Something has to be put there."

Asked why there was no sign until now, Transportation and Works director Mickey Frost told CBC Toronto the intersection is urban and well-lit, with proper signals and pavement markings.

"The intersection is compliant with provincial guidelines, and did not warrant a checkerboard sign," Frost said.

Police have yet to determine how the Khans' ended up in the water, but Frost said depending on their investigation, further steps could be taken.

"Let's let the police investigate that," relative Nauman Waheed said as the Khan brothers were laid to rest Friday. "I'll leave it to the authorities. They are pursuing this matter and let's see what they come up with in their results."
