On the agenda
As the city filed it
In June 2025, Toronto and East York Community Council adopted the Davenport Village Traffic Safety Plan, which approved new traffic safety measures designed to address speeding, heavy cut-through traffic, and other road safety concerns. As implementation of this plan moves forward, residents have raised additional safety concerns regarding unsafe parking and sightline obstructions at intersections in the area. Transportation Services staff reviewed the feasibility of introducing additional parking restrictions to address community concerns and improve safety.

A review determined that there are currently no signed parking regulations on either side of Brandon Avenue, west of Lansdowne Avenue. As a result, parking is limited to three hours unsigned on both sides of the street, narrowing the roadway and reducing visibility for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers. To resolve these issues, staff determined that a no-standing prohibition at all times on the south side of Brandon Avenue, west of Lansdowne Avenue, is warranted. This parking restriction would replace the existing unsigned three-hour statutory parking condition on the south side of the street while maintaining parking on the north side for residents and visitors. The proposed recommendations build on the Davenport Village Traffic Safety Plan by widening sightlines and improving safety for all.
Staff recommended
Councillor Alejandra Bravo recommends that: 1. Toronto and East York Community Council prohibit standing at all times, on the south side of Brandon Avenue, between Foundry Avenue and Lansdowne Avenue. 2. Toronto and East York Community Council rescind the existing standing prohibition in effect from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the south side of Brandon Avenue, between a point 73 metres east of Primrose Avenue and a point 23 metres further east.
