Traffic Control Signals Annette Street and Quebec Avenue
Transportation Services’ study results indicate that pedestrian crossing volumes on Annette Street near Quebec Avenue satisfy the minimum criteria to warrant a pedestrian crossover. The results of the traffic control signal warrant indicate that the cross traffic volumes within the intersection are close to satisfying the minimum criteria. Although the warrants for the installation of traffic control signals are not met, Transportation Services staff feel that recommending traffic control signals rather than a pedestrian crossover will provide the enhanced pedestrian protection needed at the intersection of Annette Street and Quebec Avenue..
Since the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Annette Street, City Council approval of this report is required. TTC staff has been consulted on the matter and as of the time this report was written, TTC have not objected to the proposal.
