Origin

(March 31, 2022) Report from the Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services

Summary

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

 

Transportation Services is requesting that North York Community Council prohibit stopping from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, except July and August, on the west side of Glen Rush Boulevard, between Caribou Road and Shelborne Avenue, and on the east side between Caribou Road and Frontenac Avenue. A similar prohibition is requested on both sides of Frontenac Avenue, between Glen Rush Boulevard and a point 45 metres west. Currently parking is allowed for up to three hours on these streets.

 

The proposed stopping prohibition is intended to promote student drop-off and pick-up activity within the parking lot at Yeshiva Yesodei Hatorah School. This will reduce potential on-street conflicts between students and vehicles and promote safe and efficient two-way traffic.

 

During the course of this traffic investigation, it was noted that there is no supporting traffic regulation for the posted stopping prohibition on the east side of Glen Rush Boulevard, between Frontenac Avenue and Shelborne Avenue. Recommendation 4 will correct this discrepancy.
