Summary

The purpose of this report is to seek City Council's authority to enact temporary traffic and parking amendments required to enhance traffic operations and pedestrian safety during the annual Canadian National Exhibition (CNE), which takes place from August 18 to September 4, 2023, inclusive.  As this staff report concerns roadways with regular Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) service, City Council approval is required.
