The decision

As filed

The Economic and Community Development Committee: 1. Requested the General Manager, Economic Development and Culture to include in the report to the September 16, 2025 meeting of the Economic and Community Development Committee if there are any known issues regarding the functioning of the Luminous Veil as a suicide prevention barrier.

On the agenda

As the city filed it

As you know last month this Committee approved a motion for Economic Development and Culture to review the lighting on the Luminous Veil to ensure that it functions properly and all sets of lights are operational. This report will come to the September 16th meeting of ECDC. Transportation Services is also currently planning bridge rehabilitation work for the Bloor Viaduct. While there are no changes planned for the Luminous Veil, it would be helpful to understand that it is also functioning as planned from a safety point of view.
