Given the most recent traffic data that is available, Transportation Services conducted a review of the need for traffic control signals at the intersection of Wilson Heights Boulevard and Joel Swirsky Boulevard. Based on this assessment, Transportation Services does not recommend the installation of traffic control signals at the subject intersection given that the required warrant criteria have not been satisfied. Through future development activity in the immediate area, and within the Allen East District Plan lands, the Area 2 Development Planning and Review unit in Transportation Services will continue to monitor the Wilson Heights Boulevard and Joel Swirsky Boulevard intersection and new traffic control signals will be secured, when justified and warranted. Based on a review of the information contained in the City's Application Information Centre, applications for concrete development proposals within the Allen East District Plan lands have yet to be received.

Staff recommended

The Director, Planning and Capital Program, Transportation Services and the Director Traffic Management, Transportation Services recommend that: 1. North York Community Council not authorize the installation of traffic control signals at the intersection of Joel Swirsky Boulevard and Wilson Heights Boulevard.
