On the agenda

As the city filed it

As the Toronto Transit Commission operates a transit service on Brimley Road, Kingston Road and Barkdene Hills, City Council approval of this report is required. As a result of requests from Councillor Crawford's office, area residents and Parks, Forestry and Recreation Division, Transportation Services staff reviewed the traffic and parking operations in the Bluffers Park neighbourhood. In order to mitigate traffic and parking congestion during the Park's seasonal weekends and public holidays, staff recommend that City Council prohibit southbound through and westbound left turn movements at the intersection of Kingston Road and Brimley Road from 9:00 a.m.

The recommended changes will create better sight lines for pedestrian and vehicles in the vicinity of Bluffers Park and help to mitigate traffic congestion during the peak summer weekends and public holidays when Bluffers Park usage is at its peak.
