On the agenda
As the city filed it
The Railpath is an important area for many residents in the City and it is largely used by cyclists and pedestrians who enjoy rides and walks in this green space. Since the pandemic period there has been a considerable increase in the number of people using the Railpath and with this parking issues have been identified to my office. Where Ernest Avenue intersects with the Railpath, there is a depressed curb that allows emergency and maintenance vehicles to access the Railpath.

This curb access has also resulted in vehicles accessing a small adjacent enclosure which now operates as an illegal parking space. Vehicles parked here create an obstruction for cyclists and the parked vehicles. Parking enforcement staff were notified, but due to lack of signage they could not issue violations. To address this issue I am presenting to the Toronto and East York Community Council a motion to create a "no-stopping" zone.
