Construction Staging Area Time Extension - 100-120 Broadway Avenue

Pedestrian operations are maintained on the north side of Broadway in a 2.1 metre-wide covered and protected walkway and on the east side of Redpath Avenue in a 1.7 metre-wide covered and protected walkway, within the closed portion of the existing applicable lanes. At its meeting on December 15, 2021, City Council approved the subject construction staging area on Broadway Avenue, between Redpath Avenue and a point 102 metres east, from December 16, 2021 to December 31, 2022. On the same date, City Council approved the construction staging area on Redpath Avenue, between Broadway Avenue and a point 74 metres north, for the same time period. At the time, the developer indicated they would require the staging area on Broadway Avenue for a total of 13 months (from December 16, 2021 to December 31, 2022) and on Redpath Avenue for a total of 33 months (from December 16, 2021 to August 31, 2024). As the previous permit was only approved for a 13-month period, the developer has requested an extension of the duration of the construction staging area on Redpath Avenue only, in order to complete the construction of the development. Transportation Services is requesting authorization to extend the duration of the construction staging area on Redpath Avenue from February 8, 2023 to August 31, 2024 to allow for the construction of the development to be completed.
