Summary

Toronto and East York Community Council approved speed humps on Marlborough Avenue and Marlborough Place in 2014, per TE34.156.

 

 

Residents are now requesting an additional speed hump on Marlborough Place, between Macpherson Avenue and Marlborough Place (east-west section).  Residents have observed a dangerous increase in speeding on this section of roadway.  An additional speed hump on Marlborough Place, close to its intersection with Macpherson Avenue, may assist in reducing vehicular speed and make conditions safer for local vulnerable road users, especially pedestrians.
