Summary
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates bus service on Eglinton Avenue East and Wynford Drive, City Council approval of this report is required.
Transportation Services is requesting approval from City Council to install traffic control signals at the intersections of Eglinton Avenue East and Street A, and Wynford Drive and Street A. Street A is currently an unnamed private north-south street, 175 metres east of Don Mills Road within the Crosstown development, located on the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Eglinton Avenue East and Don Mills Road. The proposed traffic signals are included in the subdivision agreement for the development and Street A will be a public street. Traffic control signals are justified at these intersections based on the anticipated vehicle and pedestrian volumes resulting from the development.
The proposed traffic control signals will provide efficient access to and from within the community for all road users and provide protected crossings for pedestrians. The cost of the signals will be borne by the property owner.
