Origin
Summary
I am kindly asking for your support of my motion to re-install a Traffic Control Personnel (TCP) at the intersection of Yonge Street and Heath Street West to assist safe pedestrian crossings. The Deer Park community continues to raise concern over the traffic flows at this intersection and my office has received community feedback that prior TCP installations have made the community feel safer while crossing this busy intersection.
