Summary

On June 1, 2023 Transportation Services advised that the installation of all-way stop control is warranted at the intersection of Hillmount Avenue and Shermount Avenue, based on the study results summarized in the table below. Staff advised that a report recommending installation could be submitted to the September 7, 2023 meeting of North York Community Council.

Table 1 - All-Way Stop Control Study at Hillmount Avenue and Shermount Avenue

Number	Warrant Type	Actual	Required	Satisfied (Yes/No)
A	Number of Potentially Preventable Collisions (January 1, 2020 – December 31, 2022)	0/3 years	6/3 years	No
B1	Average Vehicle Volumes	252/hour	250/hour	Yes
B2	Combined Vehicle and Pedestrian Volumes Crossing Major Road (Average)*	94/hour	100/hour	No
B3	Percentage of Traffic on Major Street*	64%	≤70 percent	Yes

In order for the all-way stop control to be technically warranted, either Warrant A must be met or Warrant B1 or B2 combined with Warrant B3 must be met. Based on the results shown in the above table, all-way stop control is justified at the intersection of Hillmount Avenue and Shermount Avenue.

Therefore, in order to expedite the installation of the stop signs, I am requesting that all-way stop control be authorized at the intersection of Hillmount Avenue and Shermount Avenue.
