Summary
On November 13 and 14, 2024, City Council requested the Deputy City Manager, Infrastructure Services to report to the February meeting of Toronto and East York Community Council with a street sweeping service standard for both separated and non-separated bikeways, and to provide a plan for how staff will improve their routine and complaint-based bikeway inspections, including enforcement inspections fronting private and third party construction sites within the Toronto and East York Community Council area.
Transportation Services plans to report to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee meeting in the second quarter of 2025 with a City-wide street sweeping review, which will include bikeway street sweeping service standards.
The purpose of this report is to provide a high-level overview of Transportation Services' recent and planned improvements to both routine and complaint-based bikeway inspections, including enforcement inspections fronting construction sites.
