(May 7, 2020) Letter from Councillor Ana Bailão , Ward 9, Davenport

Summary

In June of 2018, a report from Transportation Services was submitted to the Toronto East York Community Council regarding the installation of a Traffic Control System at Dovercourt Road and Davenport Road. The former Councillor for the then Ward 17 supported the report's recommendations and it was then approved by City Council in July of 2018.

 

Our office was notified by residents living on Davenport Road that installation has recently begun and that they have received no notice of any kind about this new traffic control measure.

 

While it was the responsibility of the previous Councillor to inform residents, our office is now managing the current situation in regard to how this is impacting them including with inclusion within my newsletters.
