Temporary Left-Turn Prohibition - Elm Street at Yonge Street

Transportation Services has received sightline obstruction concerns from area residents due to the above mentioned covered and protected walkway on the northwest corner of Yonge Street and Elm Street. Based on a site investigation, staff has determined that the covered walkway creates a sightline obstruction for eastbound motorists on Elm Street, turning left at Yonge Street. The developer advised that the covered walkway cannot be modified to address the sightline concerns, nor can it be removed, as it provides pedestrians a safe pathway around the construction staging area.
