On the agenda

As the city filed it

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority to make a final. 59 Project Management is constructing a six-storey rental residential development with 54 units and two levels of underground parking, at 1998-2000 Bathurst Street. The site is located on Bathurst Street, mid-block between Eglinton Avenue West and Dewbourne Avenue. Transportation Services is requesting authorization to close a 1.8-meter-wide portion of the northbound curb lane on the first lane west of Bathurst Street north of Dewbourne Avenue, between a point 52 metres north of Dewbourne Avenue and a point 41 metres further north, for a period of 22 months (i.e., June 1, 2021 to March 30, 2023) to accommodate a construction staging area.

Dewbourne Avenue between Bathurst Street and Peveril Hill North is currently designated for westbound traffic only, and therefore construction traffic exiting the laneway would be required to travel though the community to access the arterial roads in the area. To avoid this scenario, Transportation Services is proposing that Dewbourne Avenue be temporarily converted to allow for two-way traffic. Therefore, construction traffic exiting the laneway will be directed back out to Bathurst Street via Dewbourne Avenue.
