Construction for Contract Number 23ECS-MI-03FS for the Fairbank Silverthorn Basement Flooding Protection Project Contract 4, is underway. Due to the construction of shafts required for deep and large diameter storm sewer to be installed by microtunnelling, Westmount Avenue will be closed between Martin Street and Genesee Avenue for the duration of the works. Westmount Avenue currently operates as one-way southbound street. To improve traffic flow in the area and provide affected residents a route out of the proposed road closure, Westmount Avenue will be temporarily converted to two-way traffic operations, between Amherst Avenue and Rogers Road. Due to this temporary change, additional stop control will be required to effectively assign right-of-way at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Amherst Avenue, and at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Genessee Avenue. The proposed amendments to the traffic by-law regulations are being introduced in alignment with the planned construction timeline, which is scheduled to begin in November 2025 and is anticipated to be completed by approximately April 2026, with restoration and re-opening of the intersections by June 2026. In view of the above, Transportation Services is requesting authorization to temporarily convert Westmount Avenue, between Amherst Avenue and Rogers Road to two-way traffic operation. Furthermore, authorization is being requested to temporarily introduce compulsory stop control for northbound and southbound traffic at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Amherst Avenue, and additional compulsory stop control for northbound traffic at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Genessee Avenue in order to efficiently assign right-of-way while Westmount Avenue operates as a two-way street.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Temporarily rescinded the existing one-way southbound traffic designation on Westmount Avenue, between Amherst Avenue and Rogers Road. 2. Authorized a compulsory stop control for northbound and southbound traffic at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Amherst Avenue. 3.

Expanding the Community Safety Zone on Dufferin Street
Dufferin Street, between Queen Street West and Bloor Street West, serves as a vital corridor connecting residents to key community destinations, including the Roseneath Theatre, several churches, and nearby schools such as St. Helen Catholic School. The area is home to many families and vulnerable road users, and is bordered by single-family homes and City-run facilities. Dangerous driving and speeding along this section of Dufferin Street remain major concerns for residents. There continues to be serious incidents, near misses, collisions, and no regard for vulnerable road users, reflecting an urgent need for enhanced safety measures. Transportation Services conducted a review and determined that expanding the existing community safety zone on Dufferin Street is warranted. This designation will fill a gap between two existing safety zones to the north and south, ensuring a continuous corridor of traffic regulations designed to reduce dangerous driving. The establishment of a community safety zone will increase penalties for drivers violating traffic rules and will support any future implementation of automated speed enforcement. This expanded community safety zone will help to improve safety for all road users in the active and growing neighbourhoods along Dufferin Street.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council rescind the existing Community Safety Zone in effect at all times on both sides of Dufferin Street, between Dundas Street West and Queen Street West. 2. City Council rescind the existing Community Safety Zone in effect at all times on both sides of Dufferin Street, between Bloor Street West and College Street. 3. City Council designate a Community Safety Zone to be in effect at all times on both sides of Dufferin Street, between Queen Street West and Bloor Street West.

Improving Traffic Flow on College Street, between Dufferin Street and Gladstone Avenue
College Street, between Dufferin Street and Gladstone Avenue, is a busy stretch that serves as a key streetcar route for residents. It is also home to many businesses and residential communities that link together our wider Davenport community. Traffic flow in this area is being impacted by a combination of streetcar operations and parked vehicles near transit stops. Residents have shared concerns about the impact to traffic flow, citing a set of pay-and-display parking spaces on College Street as the cause. Currently, parking is permitted at all times along this section. At the same time, the westbound 506 streetcar stops traffic during pick-up and drop-off on College Street, just east of Dufferin Street. Resulting in parked vehicles blocking westbound motorists in the curb lane, especially those turning right northbound onto Dufferin Street. Together, this conflict increases congestion and traffic delays in the area as westbound motorists can be backed up to Havelock Street and Rusholme Road. Transportation Services reviewed the conditions and supports the proposed amendments that would establish a no-stopping prohibition on the north side of College Street, east of Dufferin Street. Nearby on-street and off-street parking options remain available for residents and visitors to the area. These improvements will help reduce congestion and support more efficient transit and traffic operations in this active corridor.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council authorize amendments to parking regulations required to establish a no stopping prohibition on the north side of College Street, between a point 30.5 meters east of Dufferin Street and Gladstone Avenue, as set out in Attachments 1 and 2 to the letter (October 2, 2025) from Councillor Alejandra Bravo.

St. Clair Avenue West - Parking Amendments
A commercial loading zone was previously approved on the south section of St. Clair Avenue West near Via Italia. The business that requested this loading zone moved to a different location and no longer requires these spaces. The local BIA confirmed that none of their members require access to this loading zone and it can be removed. The proposed removal of this commercial loading zone will restore on-street parking and help to welcome visitors to the Corso Italia area.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council rescind the parking prohibition in effect from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, and 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Saturday, except public holidays, on the south side of St. Clair Avenue West, between a point 57 metres east of Via Italia and a point 15.9 meters east.
