Community Council Recommendations

The Toronto and East York District recommends that:

 

1. City Council approve a pedestrian crossover (PXO)  located on Mortimer Avenue at Dewhurst Boulevard North.

Origin

(April 5, 2018) Report from the Acting Director, Transportation Services, Toronto and East York District

Summary

As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Mortimer Avenue, City Council approval of this report is required.

 

Transportation Services is requesting approval to deny the installed traffic control signals at the intersection of Mortimer Avenue and Dewhurst Boulevard North. The technical justification for the installation of traffic control signals is not satisfied, and therefore is not recommended.
