Traffic Calming Measures on Burnhamthorpe Road between Kipling Ave and Dundas
In response to safety concerns raised by residents on Burnhamthorpe Road, including a town hall that was attended by 100 plus residents I request that Transportation Services staff conduct a study of traffic calming measures on Burnhamthrope Road between Dundas Street West and Kipling Avenue to determine the feasibility of reducing the speed limit to 40km/h, and with consideration of any other appropriate measures. Burnhamthrope Road is a major arterial with residential frontages on both sides.

Traffic Calming Measures on Kingsway Crescent between Thorndale Avenue and Queen Anne Road
Kingsway Crescent is a local street that extends from The Kingsway in the south to Old Dundas Street (which then connects to Dundas Street West) in the north. Kingsway Crescent has a basic one-lane each way cross-section and is characterized by the residential single family dwellings fronting on both sides of the street with each property, generally, being provided with a driveway accessing parking garages and parking areas. There are no sidewalks provided on Kingsway Crescent today south of Bannon Avenue while a sidewalk is provided on the west side of the street northwards to Dundas Street West. The introduction of speed humps would desirably advance the safe operation of this section of Kingsway Crescent through a reduction of speeds on this section of street but also recognizing its curvilinear alignment, the prevalence of turning movements (forward and backwards) to and from private residential driveways on either side of the street and the provision of pedestrian sidewalk facilities on only one side of the street. Widespread support from local area residents have been demonstrated. BA Group was retained by local area residents to conduct a study that recommended the installation of speed humps along this section of Kingsway Crescent.
The Etobicoke York Community Council deferred consideration of the item until its January 19, 2024 meeting.
Staff recommendation as filed
Councillor Morley recommends that: 1. The Etobicoke York Community Council waive the polling requirement under the City's Traffic Calming Policy and authorize the installation of traffic calming (speed humps) on Kingsway Crescent between Thorndale Avenue and Queen Anne Road.
