Dear Chair and Members of the Toronto and East York Community Council,

Knox Avenue is a one-way street in Ward 14 that connects Eastern Avenue and Queen Street. As such it experiences high volumes of traffic. It also has a contraflow cycle lane on it that connects to Eastern Avenue. The street has speed humps, but residents are interested in additional measures to slow down traffic and keep people safe.
