On the agenda

As the city filed it

In April of this year, residents on Wyndham Street contacted my office following a collision that occurred at the intersection of the laneway located just east of St. Clarens Avenue and that runs north-south between Shirley and Wyndham Street. Wyndham Street is a local roadway with a regulatory speed limit of 30 km/h. It operates one-way westbound. The collision involved a young pedestrian who was exiting the laneway on a scooter and was hit by a vehicle travelling westbound.

Following the collision, residents submitted a petition requesting that the City's Transportation Services Department consider installing No Parking Anytime Signs on either side of the entrance to the laneway. The signs and parking amendments will significantly improve sightlines for westbound traffic, vehicles and pedestrians entering/exiting the laneway, in addition to discouraging vehicles from encroaching upon the laneway when parked. Overall, the proposed change would be beneficial for the safety of the entire community. Traffic Operations staff have been contacted for recommendations and as a result of their investigation, and after having consulted with area residents, I am recommending the removal of 1 parking space on Wyndham Street and the amendment, as outlined below.

Staff recommended

Councillor Bailão recommends that: 1. Toronto and East York Community Council prohibit parking at all times on the north side of Wyndham Street, between a point 36.2 metres east of St Clarens Avenue and a point 11.0 metres further east.
