Summary

As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates bus service on Lawrence Avenue West, City Council approval of this report is required.

 

Transportation Services is requesting approval to install traffic control signals at the intersection of Lawrence Avenue West and Brookview Drive.

 

The installation of traffic control signals is technically justified and will enhance safety for all road users. However, this installation may increase delays for motorists on Lawrence Avenue West, as these movements will no longer operate with free flow.
