Summary

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

 

As per the conditions of approval for the development of two 11-storey residential buildings at 7437, 7439 and 7441 Kingston Road, traffic control signals are to be installed at the intersection of Kingston Road and Raspberry Road/private access.

 

The installation of new traffic control signals at Kingston Road and Raspberry Road/private access will facilitate access to and from the new site and will enhance safety for all road users at this location by providing a protected pedestrian crossing across Kingston Road.  In conjunction with the signal installation, it is recommended that northbound and southbound straight through movements be prohibited at all times to discourage traffic infiltration between the site and the residential neighbourhood located north of Kingston Road.
