The decision

2026-01-13 · Toronto and East York Community Council · adopted

As filed

The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed the General Manager, Transportation Services to provide a protected pedestrian crossing over Lake Shore Boulevard West and that it be incorporated into the signalized intersection with Fleet Street and Bastion Street with delivery to be prioritized by the third quarter of 2026.

On the agenda

As the city filed it

In consultation with Transportation Services I am recommending a controlled pedestrian crossing be installed over Lake Shore Boulevard West at the signalized intersection with Fleet Street/Bastion Street/Remembrance Drive. This pedestrian crossing responds to safety concerns at this location, most recently after a pedestrian and their dog were struck by a driver in December 2025. The pedestrian crossing will be located on the west leg of Lake Shore Boulevard West, providing a safe and accessible north-south crossing opportunity for pedestrians.

This location has been identified as a pedestrian desire line and would significantly enhance safety and connectivity between key destinations, including the Martin Goodman Trail, Coronation Park, TTC streetcar services (routes 509 and 511), and the Fort York neighbourhood. Implementing a protected pedestrian crossing at this location will support safer, more direct connections between pedestrian, cycling, and transit networks. As the existing signals at this intersection are already authorized, no further by-law amendments are required by Council.

Staff recommended
