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

Transportation Services is recommending parking amendments on Sedgemount Drive to improve safety for road users fronting Tredway Woodsworth Public School.  The proposed changes will amend the school bus loading zone and short-term parking area on the north side of the street to prevent motorists from obstructing the school's driveway, ensuring clear sightlines.

During the investigation, Transportation Services discovered a discrepancy between the by-lawed regulations and the posted signage for the U-turn prohibition on Sedgemount Drive.  Recommendations 5 and 6 will rectify this inconsistency.
