To:Toronto Community Council
From:Andrew Koropeski, Director, Transportation Services District 1
Subject:Kelway Boulevard, north side from Castle Knock Road to Avenue Road -
Introduction of a "No Parking 2:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Monday to Friday and from 2:00 a.m.
to 7:00 a.m., Saturday and Sunday" prohibition. (North Toronto)
Purpose:
To reduce the incidence of long term non-resident overnight parking.
Funding Sources, Financial Implications and Impact Statement:
Funds to undertake the necessary signage adjustments in the estimated amount of $800.00 are
contained in the Transportation Services Division 1998 Current Budget.
Recommendations:
(1)That parking be prohibited on the north side of Kelway Boulevard between Castle Knock
Road and Avenue Road from 2:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Monday to Friday and from 2:00 a.m.
to 7:00 a.m., Saturday and Sunday; and
(2)That the appropriate City Officials be authorized and directed to take whatever action is
necessary to implement the foregoing, including the introduction in Council of any Bills that
may be required.
Comments:
At the request of Councillor Michael Walker, on behalf of area residents Works staff were
requested to report on the introduction of a "No parking 2:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Monday to
Friday and from 2:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m., Saturday and Sunday" prohibition on the north side of
Kelway Boulevard from Castle Knock Road to Avenue Road.
Kelway Boulevard operates two-way with a pavement width of 8.53 metres and a maximum
speed limit of 40 kilometres per hour. Parking is currently prohibited at anytime on the south
side of the subject section of Kelway Boulevard and is permitted for a maximum period of
three hours on the north side.
Works staff had received complaints from residents of Kelway Boulevard in the past
regarding long term overnight non-resident parking as well as daytime commuter parking. The
introduction of the above-noted parking prohibitions would address these concerns.
Accordingly, it is recommended that parking be prohibited as described in Recommendation
No. 1, above.
