Community Council Decision
The Toronto and East York Community Council:
1. Prohibited vehicles over 2.0 metres in width from travelling in the first lane, south of Bloor Street West, west of Lansdowne Avenue, between Lansdowne Avenue and St. Helens Avenue.
Origin
Summary
Residents in the Bloordale neighbourhood reached out to the City of Toronto requesting
signage prohibiting vehicles over 2.0 metres in width from travelling in the lane south of
Bloor Street west of Lansdowne Avenue, between St. Helens Avenue and Lansdowne
Avenue.
The purpose of prohibitive signage is to help with restricting large and heavy vehicles from
travelling on the public lane in a way that adversely impacts abutting residents by causing
property and road damage while also creating unsafe conditions for other users of the
laneway.
I am requesting that prohibitive signage be installed at the subject location as recommended
below.
