Origin
Summary
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Wilson Avenue, City Council approval of this report is required.
Transportation Services is recommending that stopping be prohibited from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, except public holidays, on the north side of Wilson Avenue, between Belgrave Avenue a point 167.5 metres west. Armour Heights Public School is located on the north side of this section of Wilson Avenue and it is not desirable to drop-off or pick-up students in this area. This activity also impedes traffic flow on Wilson Avenue. The prohibition is necessary to discourage this activity.
During the course of a traffic investigation, it was noted that the recommended stopping prohibition is posted on Wilson Avenue with only partially supporting regulations. The recommendation in this report will correct this inconsistency.
