Metrolinx GO Expansion: Time Extension of Wallace Avenue Right-of-Way Occupancy
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Wallace Avenue, City Council approval of this report is required. In June 2020, Graham Commuter Rail Solutions (GCRS), Metrolinx's contractor for the Davenport Diamond Grade Separation Project, temporarily relocated a rail signal bungalow and gate arm from Metrolinx lands to the City's right-of-way on Wallace Avenue east and west of the GO Barrie Rail Corridor tracks, respectively. With the street occupancy in place, all traffic and pedestrian movements on Wallace Avenue are maintained. On June 8 and 9, 2021, City Council authorized the time extension of right-of-way occupancy on Wallace Avenue from June 29, 2021 to June 29, 2022. A further time extension of the existing street occupancy permit on Wallace Avenue is required from June 30, 2022 to June 30, 2023 to complete the required works.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council authorize the extension of right-of-way occupancy on Wallace Avenue to accommodate the relocated rail signal bungalow and gate arm, shown on Attachment 2 to the report (May 9, 2022) from the Director, Transportation Planning and Capital Program, from June 30, 2022 to June 30, 2023 inclusive to facilitate on-going construction of the Davenport Diamond elevated guideway along the GO Barrie Rail Corridor.

Brunswick/Dupont Neighbourhood Mobility
In June 2021, Transportation Services was directed to examine traffic infiltration issues in the Brunswick Avenue/Dupont Street area including the possibility of converting Brunswick Avenue between Wells Street and Dupont Street to one-way for motor vehicle traffic. A review was conducted using best available traffic data which because of COVID-19 is approximately 3-5 years old. This illustrated little infiltration present along local roads and no collisions resulting in people killed or seriously injured. In 2020, Transportation Services installed new contra-flow bike lanes on Brunswick Avenue between Lowther Avenue and College Street as part of the Brunswick-Borden Neighbourhood Cycling Connections project and acknowledged the desirability of continuing the route northward in a future phase. The requested Brunswick Avenue/Dupont Street study elements are aligned with the current approach to neighbourhood cycling connections projects and would serve as an extension to the 2020 Brunswick-Borden project. The most effective mechanism to pursue changes to Brunswick Avenue is to study, consult and implement them as a continuous project, programmed as part of the next Near-Term Cycling Implementation Program (2025-2027). This will allow for a holistic area study including traffic infiltration reduction strategies on Brunswick Avenue and adjacent streets tied directly to the most appropriate implementation mechanism.

Corridor Safety Review - O'Connor Drive (Traffic Control Signal Update)
At its meeting of January 6, 2022, Toronto and East York Community Council (TEYCC) adopted, as amended, Item TE30.24 regarding a corridor safety review on O'Connor Drive (Ward 14). Evaluation of the installation of traffic control signals at various intersections along O'Connor Drive was intended to be included as part of Item TE30.24, but staff's investigation was delayed due to the pandemic and the inability to collect the necessary traffic count data representative of true traffic conditions. In this supplementary report, Transportation Services has now collected and reviewed updated traffic count data and this report provides an evaluation of the need for traffic control signals at three intersections along O'Connor Drive, between Broadview Avenue and Coxwell Avenue. Based on the assessment undertaken, Transportation Services does not recommend the installation of traffic control signals at these intersections as the warrant criteria was not met.
