As the city filed it

The Council approved Vision Zero 2.0 Road Safety Plan update committed to taking a stronger data driven approach to road safety. In line with that commitment and as a cost saving measure, the City of Toronto applied for a grant offered by Aviva Canada Inc. for safety analysis and diagnostics using video near-miss detection at 10 intersections within the City. The City of Toronto is one of the five major Canadian municipalities that have been chosen as successful grant applicants.

Transportation Services staff are seeking authority to enter into an agreement to embark on this safety analysis with the grant partners. As a successful applicant, the City is benefiting from $37,500 of services provided by MicroTraffic paid for by Aviva Canada Inc. The safety analysis would be provided through the grant program, involving cost-sharing between Aviva Canada Inc. and the City of Toronto. Aviva Canada Inc. would fund 75 percent of the costs associated with MicroTraffic's work ($37,500 ) and the City of Toronto would fund the remaining 25 percent ($12,500).
