Summary

As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Sheppard Avenue West, City Council approval of this report is required.

 

Transportation Services is seeking authorization to install traffic control signals at the intersection of Sheppard Avenue West and Pewter Road. A pedestrian activated traffic control signal was previously approved on Sheppard Avenue West, 30 metres east of Pewter Road (but not yet installed), however, relocation to the subject intersection has been requested to enhance safety and facilitate movement for both pedestrians and motorists in the area. Staff have reviewed the feasibility of the request and have no objections to the relocation of the signal to the subject intersection.
