Summary
This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.
The purpose of this report is to conclude the Oakridge Streets Plan and seek authorization to proceed to the implementation phase.
This report summarizes the study findings and recommends road safety and traffic management changes for implementation in the Oakridge neighbourhood. Recommended changes include intersection safety improvements, traffic calming measures, new traffic control signals, a new pedestrian crosswalk, removal of pedestrian refuge islands, new and refreshed pavement markings, and school crossing guard studies.
Two companion reports have been submitted. A report titled "Traffic Safety Improvements: Danforth Avenue" has been submitted to Scarborough Community Council and "Traffic Control Signals and Turn Prohibitions - Victoria Park Avenue and Wakehood Street" has been submitted to Infrastructure and Environment Committee. As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Danforth Avenue and as Victoria Park Avenue is located at the border of two Community Council Areas, City Council approval of changes recommended in the companion reports is required.
A summary of all changes proposed can be found in Table 1.
