The site is an "L" shaped lot located on the northwest corner of Adelaide Street West and Peter Street. Transportation Services is requesting authorization to close the sidewalk and a 3.1 metre wide portion of the southbound curb lane/parking lane on the west side of Peter Street for a period of 20 months (i.e. May 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022) to accommodate a construction staging area. Pedestrian operations on the west side of Peter Street will be maintained in a covered and protected walkway within the closed portion of the existing lane. The existing bike lane located on the west side of Peter Street will be realigned but will be maintained. However, the closure will result in loss the of approximately 4 parking machine spaces on the west side of Peter Street abutting the site. Two of these spaces are allocated as a motorcycle parking zone. Pedestrian operations on the north side of Adelaide Street West, abutting the site, will be maintained in a covered and protected walkway within the existing sidewalk.
