As filed

The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Authorized an all-way compulsory stop control at the intersection of St. Clarens Avenue and Shirley Street.

On the agenda

As the city filed it

Traffic Operations was requested by Vision Zero to review proposed sidewalk and curb improvements for St. Clarens Avenue and Shirley Street which would provide safe crossing in all directions at the intersection. The intersection is currently uncontrolled, and pedestrians were crossing at their own risk. As a result, an All-Way Stop Control (AWSC) warrant was undertaken to determine if an AWSC could be installed at this intersection.

While an AWSC was found not to be warranted, staff determined it would be beneficial to have an AWSC installed here due to the following reasons: -The presence of a nearby school (Shirley Street Junior Public School) which also houses City View Alternative Senior School, an EarlyON Child and Family Centre, and a YMCA Child Care Centre -Providing crossing at the intersection for students and parents/guardians -An opportunity to provide safe crossing in all directions -To mitigate conflicts amongst motorists, cyclists and pedestrians -Network connectivity; this control will provide a route with protected pedestrian crossings that connect to the new signals on Lansdowne Avenue and the West Toronto Railpath

Staff recommended

Councillor Bravo recommends that: 1. Toronto and East York Community Council authorize an all-way compulsory stop control at the intersection of St. Clarens Avenue and Shirley Street.
