This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

Transportation Services is recommending prohibiting standing on both sides of the north/south leg of Archer Street, between Cobourg Avenue and the east/west leg of Archer Street.  The proposed changes will deter parking at this location and improve safety and traffic operations by maintaining unobstructed sightlines and a clear passage for vehicles on the two-way street.

During the investigation, Transportation Services discovered inconsistencies in the traffic by-law related to the current signed parking regulations on Archer Street and Coburg Avenue.  Recommendations 2 to 5 will rectify these inconsistencies.
