Intersection Safety Review - Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street
The intersection of Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street sits at the centre of a rapidly growing neighbourhood. More and more residents are walking or cycling through this intersection to get around our city. With the Bloor-Dufferin development set to be complete in the coming years, the amount of traffic in this area will significantly increase. Unfortunately, despite this intersection being an important neighbourhood connection, it is unsafe for pedestrians crossing and cyclists travelling through. The wide curb radius and lack of physical protection have resulted in dangerous incidents and near misses. In early August, a truck driver making a prohibited right turn struck and seriously injured a cyclist travelling through the intersection. This incident should have never occurred, and I am grateful the cyclist survived. There is an urgent need for immediate improvements to ensure these collisions do not happen again.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services to conduct a comprehensive intersection safety review at Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street, and report back to the Toronto and East York Community Council by January 14, 2025 with proposed near-term changes to improve pedestrian and cyclist safety. 2. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, Toronto Transit Commission and the Executive Director, FIFA World Cup 2026 Secretariat, investigate the installation of geometric safety improvements at Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street as part of the accelerated implementation of the RapidTO surface transit priority project on Dufferin Street.

Loading Zone on Wellington Street West
On Wellington Street West between Bathurst Street and Tecumseth Street, a loading zone is required to permit pick-up/drop-off activities in a manner that does not block the single lane of westbound traffic. This reserved space will also help to alleviate traffic back-up during solid waste collection. In addition, the rescinding of the No Standing on the north side of Wellington Street West between a point 42 metres west of Bathurst and a point 27 metres further west will simplify the signage where a designated loading zone and accompanying signage already exist.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Enacted a standing prohibition in effect at all times on the north side of Wellington Street West, between a point 100 metres west of Bathurst Street and a point 25 metres further west. 2. Rescinded the existing standing prohibition in effect at all times on the north side of Wellington Street West, between a point 42 metres west of Bathurst Street and a point 27 metres further west.

Exclusion of Developments Located in Regent Park from Permit Parking
I am writing to take the next step to create new permit parking opportunities for Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) tenants in the Regent Park neighbourhood. Prior to revitalization, Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) tenants in Regent Park had above ground parking lots with parking for their tenants. Through revitalization and with the start of Phases 4 and 5 construction, Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) tenants have now lost this above ground parking. Limited underground parking within Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) buildings has instead been made available. At the June 11, 2024 Toronto and East York Community Council meeting, a motion that exempted the petition and polling requirements to implement permit parking in the Regent Park neighbourhood was approved. This motion is to limit buildings that can access future permit parking to tenants within Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) buildings. Due to the immense desirability of permit parking in the downtown, this measure would provide an equity lens that would deliver affordable permit parking spaces to Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) tenants.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services to review and report back on the feasibility of excluding the developments listed below from Permit Parking should it be implemented on an area or street-based basis in the future: a. 1 Cole Street; b. 25 Cole Street; c. 12-40 Cole Street; d. 42-70 Cole Street; e. 30 Dreamers Way; f. 25 Nicholas Street; g. 55 Nicholas Avenue; h. 7-35 Oak Street; i. 7 and 9 Peaceful Way; j. 55 Regent Park Boulevard; k. 100 River Street; l. 130 River Street; m. 154 and 156 Sackville Street; n. 200 Sackville Street; o. 225 Sackville Street; p. 260 Sackville Street; q. 378-388 Shuter Street; r. 170 Sumach Street; s. 225 Sumach Street; t. 53-63 Sutton Street; u. 146 Sumach Street; and v. 20 Tubman Street

Parking Amendments - St. Joseph Street
I am writing to request parking amendments to St. Joseph Street to help facilitate a passenger pick-up/drop-off zone and a commercial loading zone on St. Joseph Street west of Yonge Street. The Bay Cloverhill Community Association has raised concerns brought by local residents about difficulties facilitating deliveries, ride-share and other vehicles for buildings near Yonge Street and St. Joseph Street. Vehicles are often parking or standing in No Parking zones, blocking parking garages and sometimes double parking on both sides of the street. A proper passenger pick-up/drop off zone as well as a commercial loading zone would help provide a pick-up drop-off zone for vehicles and help manage traffic in the area.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Rescinded the existing parking machine regulation in effect from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday and from 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Sunday, at a rate of $5.25 per hour and for a maximum period of three hours, on the south side of St. Joseph Street, between Bay Street and Yonge Street. 2.
