Community Council Decision
The Toronto and East York Community Council:

Origin
Summary
Morrison Avenue, located between St. Clair Avenue West and Rogers Road, is located in the heart of North Corso and connects hundreds of residents to local shops, schools, parks, and public transit. I have heard from many residents and the North Corso Residents’ Association that drivers too often speed excessively down Morrison Avenue, putting them and their families at risk. Residents have also shared their experiences with accidents and near misses as a result of dangerous driving. As this neighbourhood continues to grow, there is an urgent need for traffic calming measures.
In a survey hand-delivered to homes by my office, residents along Morrison Avenue overwhelmingly supported the installation of speed humps as a proposed traffic calming measure. The addition of speed humps will help improve traffic safety for residents living in the area and support existing traffic calming measures on neighbouring streets.
