On the agenda

As the city filed it

Residents reached out to my office after noticing that the 'no right turn on red' regulation along St. Clair Avenue West at Lansdowne Avenue was slowing the flow of vehicular traffic and contributing to congestion along St. Clair. This restriction was implemented during construction of the St. Clair streetcar right-of-way. It was intended to reduce conflicts between vehicles turning right onto Lansdowne Avenue and streetcars turning right/left from St.

Clair Avenue West to Lansdowne Avenue. As this intersection is part of a major arterial road and transit-way, I sought the advice of City of Toronto Traffic Operations and Toronto Transit Commission's (TTC) Service Planning. There is broad agreement that the restriction is no longer necessary. I am therefore moving to rescind.
