Traffic Control Signals Scarborough Golf Club Road at Confederation Drive

It is with regret that a fatality occurred at the intersection on September 24, 2019 when 17 year old resident attempted to cross the 4 lane road and was unfortunately struck. It should be noted that on the day after the fatality police and news media were on site, their presence did not defer cars from passing with high speeds of 80km/hr in the 50 km/hr zone as they passed the accident site to the surprise of those at the scene. The community has been voicing there concerns for some time we need to act and install the much needed traffic lights. The site lines at the intersection can also be tricky as just south of the intersection the road narrows, motorists tend to speed into the opening lane passing other vehicles coming upon this intersection quickly. Having a signalized traffic light at this location would slow down motorists and create a safe environment for the many residents of all ages who cross to reach the services located on both the east and west side of Scarborough Golf Club Road; including schools, Cedar Brae Library, community Mosque, Cedarbrae Community Centre, community parks and other needed amenities.
