The City is currently conducting a survey to gauge community’s support for road changes based on a safety study. Our city councillors and Transportation Services staff will use the results of the survey to determine how to proceed with this transformation and provide funding to make it happen.
Changes include:
- reconfiguring Avenue Road from a 6-lane expressway to a 4-lane roadway
- repurposing the 2 lanes to improve road safety, mobility and streetscape, to better serve all road users.
In the survey you are able to comment on details of the designs if you wish. The designs may be further refined. Your strong support or support for these two final survey questions is most important.
- Overall, do you agree that the proposed actions on Avenue Road will improve safety and comfort for all road users, including pedestrians, people who cycle, ride public transit, and drive, with acceptable trade-offs in motor vehicle traffic flow?
- Do you agree that the long-term vision, which consists of reducing the number of motor vehicle lanes from 6 to 4 and repurposing the space for other uses, will address community concerns and aspirations for Avenue Road?
