On the agenda

As the city filed it

Improving traffic safety on Maxome Avenue has been a top priority for my office. Over the past two years, we've heard from many residents raising concerns about traffic flow and road safety and we have taken some initiatives to improve the safety, like installation of All-Way Stop sign at Maxome and Wedgewood / Ruth. Following a petition and conducting a community survey, Transportation Services reviewed the stretch of Maxome from Finch to Steeles.

City staff recommended installation of 20 speed humps and lowering the speed limit to 30 kilometre. Unfortunately, after the Council approved this plan on April 2nd, we received a new petition opposing them - signed by nearly 200 residents. Given the growing concern, I've decided to defer the item for further consultation at the June 4th North York Community Council meeting. I'm committed to finding a balanced solution that enhances safety while reflecting the input of the community. To that end, we've been working closely with local residents and staff from Transportation Services, and have booked a space for an in-person meeting to collaborate on a resolution together.
