Origin
Summary
This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.
Transportation Services is requesting Etobicoke York Community Council approve eastbound right-turn and westbound left-turn prohibitions at the intersection of Fern Avenue and George Street, from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday.
George Street connects Church Street and King Street and also serves as an access to both St. John the Evangelist School and HJ Alexander Community School. The prohibitions are intended to provide for more orderly traffic flow to both schools.
As the TTC operates regular bus service on Church Street, a companion report entitled "Turn Prohibitions – Church Street at George Street" outlines proposed non-delegated traffic regulations at Church Street and George Street that require final approval by City Council.
