The relocation of pedestrian crossover is based on a number of other factors staff have considered, namely; the pedestrian generators in the area (i.e., school, park and community centre on Church Avenue, west of Willowdale Avenue and high density development on Willowdale Avenue, north of Church Avenue), and the nearby TTC stops. A pedestrian crossover at this location will enhance safety for pedestrians in this area.

City Council authorize the removal of existing pedestrian crossover from Willowdale Avenue, immediately north of McKee Avenue. 2.
