Origin
Summary
This report recommends that the existing westbound left-turn lane and the westbound shared through/right-turn lane pavement markings and regulatory signage at the Middlefield Road and McCowan Road intersection be by-lawed to make the existing regulations enforceable. The existing signs and markings clearly define lane usage in order to mitigate conflicts and define turning movements but corresponding regulations are not currently included in Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 950.
