On the agenda

As the city filed it

This report is required to enable the implementation and evaluation of a pilot project for the temporary installation of a parklet on Spadina Road in conjunction with other public realm improvements contained within the Streetscape Master Plan for Forest Hill Village. City Council approval is required because Spadina Road has a Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) route. The pilot project will maintain the existing 2-way traffic lanes and will require no modifications to Spadina Road.
