Origin
Summary
The purpose of this report is to obtain approval for the installation of Parking Machines (Pay & Display) and to prohibit standing, from 12:01 a.m. to 8:00 a.m., Monday to Saturday and from 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, on the north side of Bloor Street West between Montgomery Road and Brentwood Road North. The proposed parking machines and standing prohibitions are in response to a request made by the area Councillor for staff to review the feasibility of introducing parking on the aforementioned section of Bloor Street West where standing is currently prohibited at all times. There is a Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) bus stop at this location that only services an overnight bus route, thus the existing standing prohibition is too restrictive.
As Bloor Street West is a transit route, this matter requires the approval of City Council. TTC staff have been advised of the issue and have not objected to the recommendations.
