On the agenda

As the city filed it

I am writing to respectfully request the continuation of the placement of a temporary school crossing guard at the intersection of College View Avenue and Highbourne Road. Since 2021, my office has been working closely with the local community, school, and residents association to address concerns of traffic speed and volume throughout the Chaplin Estates neighbourhood. The intervention of a school crossing guard at College View Avenue and Highbourne Road has consistently been raised by the community as a solution that would go a long way in facilitating the safe travel of students to and from Oriole Park Jr.

Public School. In February 2022, parents from the Oriole Park Jr. Public School community submitted an application to install a school crossing guard at the intersection of College View Avenue and Highbourne Road. Unfortunately, the consultant conclude that the location did not warrant a crossing guard. At the request of concerned parents from the Oriole Park Jr Public School community and Oriole Park Association (OPA), I am requesting that a temporary School Crossing Guard be placed at this intersection while my office works with Transportation Services and the community on additional solutions to traffic safety.

Staff recommended

It is recommended that: 1. Toronto East York Community Council override the technical analysis and authorize the placement of a temporary School Crossing Guard at the intersection of College View Avenue and Highbourne Road until a subsequent warrant analysis can be conducted in Q4 of 2024.
