Summary

At its meeting held on March 12, 2020 Etobicoke York Community Council adopted the recommendations in Item EY14.8 made by staff at Transportation Services to not authorize an all-way stop control at the intersection of Thurodale Avenue and Duckworth Street.

 

Subsequently, residents in the area of Thurodale Avenue and Duckworth Street collected a signed petition with signatures from seventeen households in the immediate area to show support in the implementation of the all-way stop at this location. Residents voiced concerns with speeding in the area and safety concerns for pedestrians and feel that an all-way stop would help address these concerns.
