Origin
Summary
This staff report is about a matter for which the Etobicoke York Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.
This report recommends that a 40 km/h speed limit be implemented on Renforth Drive, between Bloor Street West and Burnhamthorpe Road, as the 40 km/h speed limit warrant is met. Although not technically warranted, staff also recommends that a 40 km/h speed limit be implemented on Renforth Drive, between Burnhamthorpe Road and Rathburn Road, for speed limit uniformity. Currently, the speed limit on Renforth Drive, between Eglinton Avenue West and Bloor Street West varies between 40 km/h and 50 km/h. This proposal will provide consistency in terms of the speed limit on Renforth Drive between Bloor Street West and Eglinton Avenue West.
