be updated by incorporating the changes contained
in Appendix 2 entitled “Road Classification Update - Table of Changes”. The table
contained in Appendix 1, titled “Road Classification Criteria”, approved by City Council at its meeting of

City Council, at its
meeting of June 19, 20 and 22, 2007, approved the changes in the Road
Classification System and requested that the following changes also be
incorporated:
- adding Sandwood Road to Ward Scarborough-Agincourt (39), and that it be
reclassified from a Local to a Collector road; and
- Wenderly Drive , so that
Wenderly Drive retains its status as a Local road.
Updating the current Road
Classification System with the recommended changes will ensure that the City’s
road network will continue to function efficiently and safely and be properly
operated and managed.
The updated Road Classification System City-wide; District; and individual Ward maps;
their corresponding Street Name Indexes; and
classification of city Streets Lists are now
available on-line. Also, available is a Ward
Map Book that contains the
44 wards and associated Street Name Indexes.
