We the residents of the community of Charlottetown Public School petition the City of Toronto to install additional traffic signs along Charlottetown Boulevard.
Currently Charlottetown Boulevard experiences increased traffic flow during school drop-off and pick-up times. To add to this traffic flow is the presence of a crosswalk just a few feet from McCulley Street. As well during those times, many vehicles going Northbound turn left onto McCulley Street causing traffic to get backed up all the way to Lawrence Avenue. Because of this increased traffic congestion, children’s safety is at risk.
We request that the City of Toronto install additional traffic signs that prohibit turning left and right onto McCulley Street from Northbound and Southbound Charlottetown Boulevard during the following times:
• 7:30am – 9:30am
• 3:00pm – 5:00pm
• Turning will be prohibited Monday to Friday from September to June only.
Please help us increase the level of safety on Charlottetown Boulevard by adding your support.
Let's not wait until a child gets injured before these signs go up!! Let's be proactive and take the safety of children seriously!! There have been fatalities this school year already in the GTA and we don't want this to happen in our community. The presence of the high school along the same street is another factor which causes much traffic and often those speeding to get their high school student to school on time. There is often little regard for the elementary school kids. Please City of Toronto take this situation seriously. Thank you
