On the agenda

As the city filed it

As the TTC and Toronto Water construction begins on Queen Street East between Broadview Avenue and Davies Avenue, we are already experiencing the traffic and parking impacts on Ward 14. Due to feedback from residents and the BIA, I have heard accessibility concerns with the 25 parking spots that have been occupied on Queen Street East for this construction work. I am disappointed that replacement parking was not proactively considered before this construction project was awarded.

The project has been delayed since early November and is now rescheduled for January 2026. However, parking on Queen St. E continues to be occupied despite no active work taking place, which does not reflect the needs of the community. For the duration of this construction, I am requesting that parking regulations on Carroll Street be temporarily adjusted to allow applicable daytime parking. Additionally, I ask that Transportation Services, in collaboration with the local Councillor and the Riverside BIA, investigate options for replacement parking in the immediate area.
