St. Clair Avenue East - Road Alteration

Clair Avenue East by bypassing general traffic in the area. This would benefit approximately 630 daily bus-trips (in both directions) and improve the journey times for 44,000 daily customers. This proposal is supported by the City and Toronto Transit Commission's established criteria for queue-jump lane warrants. The eastbound and westbound queue-jump lanes on St. Clair Avenue East would be accommodated by implementing pavement marking adjustments and by converting a hatched area adjacent to the curb lane and adjusting adjacent travel lanes. No road or roadway widening is required. As per the City standard, the queue-jump lane would be identified by a red paint application. These modifications would not result in the loss of any travel lanes for general traffic. All current lanes would remain, including existing dedicated left-turn lanes at Linden Avenue and Midland Avenue.
