Transportation Services and Engineering and Construction Services are requesting approval to install temporary all-way stop control at the intersection of Bicknell Avenue and Westbury Crescent, to enhance safety for all road users. While reviewing Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 950, §950-1326. Schedule XXVII - Compulsory Stops, Transportation Services noticed that Westbury Crescent is incorrectly listed as Westbury Avenue; this report also seeks to correct that reference by deleting "Avenue" and replacing it with "Crescent".
