On the agenda

As the city filed it

Transportation Services and Deputy Mayor Malik are considering changes to Ossington between Dundas Street and Queen Street, which will allow parking 24/7 on both sides, add pedestrian bump outs, and reduce live traffic to one lane in each direction. These changes will have knock on effect on Ossington Street traffic north of Dundas Street. Some residents in the area north of Dundas Street have also requested that parking be permitted during rush-hour in order to provide a safety buffer between pedestrians and moving vehicles, particularly in the vicinity of schools.
