As the city filed it

Stanley Avenue is a one-way street, with a posted speed limit of 30 km/hr and a contraflow bike lane. Queens Ave. is a two-way street with stop signs at Stanley Avenue. The intersection of Queens Avenue and Stanley Avenue in the Mimico community of Ward 3, is a wide and irregular shape. Because of its size and configuration, the intersection is confusing for all road users and I have witnessed several near miss accidents.

I have requested the intersection be studied several times for traffic calming, and in 2018 I moved a motion requesting a study on the feasibility of a roundabout, intersection realignment, or any other changes to improve safety at this intersection. That study has been put on hold pending the Mimico Comprehensive Traffic Study. This matter cannot wait any longer. I am requesting an all -way stop be installed immediately at the intersection of Queens Avenue and Stanley Avenue, as an interim measure until the intersection can be re-designed.

Staff recommended

Councillor Mark Grimes recommends that: 1. The Etobicoke York Community Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services immediately install an all-way stop at the intersection of Queens Avenue and Stanley Avenue.
