Summary

This item is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority to make a final decision, provided that it is not amended.

 

Clinton Street, between College Street and Harbord Street is classified as a collector roadway, and generally operates one-way northbound, except for a small section between College Street and a point 107 metres north which operates two-way.  This section of Harbord Street has traffic calming and has a posted speed limit of 30 km/h.

 

After a further review by Transportation Services staff, it was noted that there is an inconsistency with the by-lawed, and posted speed limit, on this section of Clinton Street given the existing traffic calming measures.  This by-law inconsistency will be resolved by the adoption of the recommendation noted below.
