1. City Council prohibit southbound left turns on Runnymede Road at Maria Street, from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m., and from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, buses excepted.
Origin
Summary
The purpose of this report is to obtain approval to prohibit southbound left-turns from Runnymede Road onto Maria Street between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday.
This proposed turn restriction addresses concerns from area residents with respect to transient (short-cut) traffic on Maria Street.
As Runnymede Road is a transit route, this matter requires the approval of City Council. Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) staff has been advised of the issue and have not objected to the recommendations.
