The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed Transportation staff to report back by the first quarter of 2022 on the feasibility of installing a traffic control signal at the Shuter Street and Sackville Street intersection.

On the agenda

As the city filed it

A petition was submitted to the City of Toronto with over 100 signatures expressing concern for the safety of pedestrians at the intersection of Shuter Street and Sackville Street. Shuter Street runs parallel to Queen Street and Dundas Street. However, unlike either of these, Shuter Street has no traffic lights or stop signs between Parliament and River, despite having seven intersections in this segment. We are requesting staff investigate adding a traffic light at this intersection in order to improve pedestrian safety and report back about all options to improve safety concerns.
