I believe one of City Hall's priorities should be taking prudent measures to tackle gridlock. Therefore, along with my motion to increase fines and enforcement during rush hour, I have written to the City's Public Works and Infrastructure Committee requesting them to instruct Transportation Services to report back on the possible implementation of Synchronized Traffic Signals in the City of Toronto. You can see the full letter here.
Also, I want to let you know that the City's Transportation Services Division is proposing amendments to Chapter 743 ("Streets and Sidewalks, Use of") of the City of Toronto's Municipal Code that will consolidate about 30 different sets of existing legislation regulating the use of our City's streets into one comprehensive City-wide by-law. You are invited to attend any of the following open houses from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm.
