Origin
Summary
Residents on Boon Avenue have shared their concerns regarding speeding vehicles causing accidents and near misses involving residents living in the area. This section of Boon Avenue, located north of Rogers Road, was not considered for traffic calming measures when they were approved for the section south down to St. Clair Avenue West. This oversight creates a significant gap, resulting in drivers speeding up as they exit the traffic calming zone.
In a survey hand-delivered to homes by my office, residents further shared their experiences and voted in strong support for the installation of speed humps. I heard similar concerns and support for speed humps at a neighbourhood meeting hosted at St. John Bosco earlier this year. The installation of these traffic calming measures will help improve safety and complete an existing network of speed humps on Boon Avenue.
During a review by Transportation Services, City staff identified discrepancies between parking regulations listed in the bylaws and posted signage on Boon Avenue. A set of recommendations in this motion corrects this issue.
