Community Council Decision
The Toronto and East York Community Council:
1. Waived the polling requirement under the City's Traffic Calming Policy and authorized the installation of traffic calming (speed humps) on Hepbourne Street from Dovercourt Road to Ossington Avenue.
2. Directed the City Solicitor to prepare a by-law to alter sections of the roadway on Hepbourne Street, for traffic calming purposes, generally as shown on the copy of Drawing No. 421G-3907, (August 2021), from the Acting Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services, Toronto and East York District.
Origin
Summary
In December 2019, residents reached out to my office with an urgent concern about speeding along their street and requested via a community-led petition that traffic calming measures (speed humps) be installed as a method of addressing these concerns. Unanimously, the residents surveyed were in support of making this change.
I am requesting that speed humps be installed on Hepbourne Street from Dovercourt Road to Ossington Avenue.
