Origin
Summary
The purpose of this report is to obtain approval for the installation of traffic control signals at the intersection of The East Mall and Capri Road in order to facilitate safe crossings for pedestrians.
The installation of a pedestrian crossover (PXO) is justified as the technical criteria have been met; however, a PXO on The East Mall would not be suitable given the failure of the suitability criteria on this minor arterial road. As an alternative, installing traffic control signals at this location would provide a safe and convenient access for pedestrians crossing The East Mall.
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates bus service on The East Mall, City Council approval of this report is required. TTC has been advised on the matter.
