Origin

(April 30, 2019) Report from the Acting Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services

Summary

As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Pape Avenue, City Council approval of this report is required.

 

Transportation Services does not support the replacement of the existing pedestrian crossovers (PXO) with traffic control signals at the following intersections:
