The City of Toronto is proposing to install a complete street on Trethewey Drive, which includes road safety improvements, bus stop enhancements and a bikeway, between Eglinton Avenue West and Jane Street. Complete streets enhance road safety and accessibility for all road users, including pedestrians, people cycling and driving.
The proposed complete street, including road safety improvements, bus stop enhancements and a bikeway, will run along Trethewey Drive from Eglinton Avenue West to Jane Street.
The proposed complete street along Trethewey Drive, from Eglinton Avenue to Jane Street, will use quick build materials such as paint and pre-cast materials.
The proposed configuration and design of the street will be developed based on public feedback collected through Phase 1 of the project (Spring 2024) and will be shared during Phase 2.
In this phase, the project team will gather feedback and preliminary ideas from the public to inform the complete street design.
The public workshop included a presentation, time for questions and comments, and a hands-on mapping activity where members of the public were able to share ideas and identify preliminary concerns.
Date: Wednesday, June 12, 2024
Time: 6:30 to 8 p.m.
Address: The Learning Enrichment Foundation- 116 Industry Street, Toronto, Ontario

In this phase the project team will share a preliminary design based on the information collected in Phase 1 and gather further feedback to be taken into consideration during the detailed design phase.
Trethewey Drive and Denison Road were identified in the 2016 Ten Year Cycling Network Plan and for implementation in the 2022-2024 Cycling Network Near Term Implementation Program. Trethewey Drive scored second highest in the category of overall cycling impact analysis to benefit from major safety improvements due to the history of speeding, collisions, and serious injuries to road users.
Trethewey Drive provides a key connection supporting neighbourhoods that are most in need from both a cycling infrastructure perspective, as well as a social equity perspective. It also provides a connection between Eglinton Avenue West, the future Keelesdale LRT Station, the Weston UP and GO station, public transit on Jane Street and Weston Cycling Connections.
