On the agenda

As the city filed it

The Queen Street Watermain and TTC Track Replacement project has required the temporary removal of 25 paid parking spaces between Davies and Broadview Avenues to support construction staging and traffic management. The area has already faced significant parking, and traffic impacts due to earlier emergency watermain work. The continued occupation of parking spaces despite construction delays, and the lack of proactive planning for replacement parking, has created ongoing concerns for residents and the local Business Improvement Areas (BIA).
