Vision Zero Road Safety Plan - Speed Limit Reductions to 30 kilometres per hour on Local Roads, Public Lanes and Adding Existing 30 kilometres per hour Collector Roads in Ward 15 into Schedule 45 of Municipal Code Chapter 950 (Traffic and Parking)

The Vision Zero Speed Management Strategy includes a program for reducing speed limits on local roads, as defined in the City's Road Classification System, and public lanes or public alleys, to 30 kilometre per hour, on a neighbourhood basis. With this approach, the City is no longer required to sign every individual street within that designated area, but only the entry and exit points to / from the designated area where speed limits change and any internal roads with a different speed limit. The purpose of this report is to recommend area-based speed limit reductions to 30 kilometres per hour on public lanes or public alleys and local roads in Ward 15 in the North York Community Council area as part of the Vision Zero Road Safety Plan, Speed Management Strategy, as well as to place existing 30 kilometre per hour collector roads into the corresponding areas. This report also recommends reducing the speed limit on Sandfield Road, between York Mills Road and Sagewood Drive from 40 kilometre per hour to 30 kilometre per hour. Sandfield Road received speed hump traffic calming measures in 2003, before speed limit reductions to 30 kilometre per hour were implemented in conjunction with traffic calming. This speed limit reduction is in line with the Council approved 2023 Traffic Calming Policy. Lastly, this report recommends reducing the speed limit on a 90 meter section of Broadway Avenue, between Bayview Avenue and Bessborough Drive, from 40 kilometre per hour to 30 kilometre per hour. The speed limit along the section of Broadway Avenue immediately to the west, between Mount Pleasant Road and Bayview Avenue, and the section immediately to the east, between Bessborough Drive and Don Avon Drive, are currently by-lawed at 30 kilometre per hour. The proposed reduction in the speed limit will establish continuity along this section of roadway.

2. North York Community Council reduce the speed limit from 40 kilometres per hour to 30 kilometres per hour on Broadway Avenue, between Bayview Avenue and Bessborough Drive and include it within the corresponding designated area in Column 1 in Schedule XLV (Part 1). 3. North York Community Council reduce the speed limit from 40 kiliometres per hour to 30 kilometres per hour on Sandfield Road, between York Mills Road and Sagewood Drive, and include it within the corresponding designated area in Column 1 in Schedule XLV (Part 1).
