Origin
Summary
Residents near Gerrard Street East and Broadview Avenue have reached out to my office regarding speeding concerns in the public lane south of Gerrard Street East, west of Boulton Avenue. Although there are some bollards in the laneway, the traffic speeds persist, and vehicles have been repeatedly damaging the home at 244 Boulton Avenue. There is a high volume of traffic in this laneway as is the main access point for businesses on Gerrard Street East.
