Summary
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates transit service on Bushby Drive and on Grangeway Avenue, City Council approval of this report is required.
This report recommends formally designating lanes for eastbound left and right-turning traffic at the intersection of Bushby Drive and Grangeway Avenue. Designating these lanes will clearly define traffic lane usage, improve traffic operations, facilitate enforcement and provide a safer environment for all road users.
The eastbound lane designation pavement markings are in place, but by-law regulations are required.
