Sheppard Leslie construction - Stage 3

This update was provided by Transporation staff early this morning.

The Contractor completed the bulk of the work last night associated with the Stage 3 setup which is now in place and in operation starting at approx. 5AM.

The rain which started around 2:30AM prevented the placement of the dashed guide lines through the intersection however the pre-marking for these lines is in and will assist the motorists somewhat. The contractor is scheduled to be in tonight at 10PM weather permitting to paint in the permanent guidelines and some arrows.

Due to the newness of the setup and the rain forecasted today, pay duty assist was requested for the am and pm rush periods. The writer is unaware whether the request for pay duty officers for the am rush was actually accomplished as the request was made rather early this morning as the officers that were at the intersection were unable to stay through the am rush period..

About Me

Name: Ward 33

Location: 100 Queen St. W. Suite A4, Toronto, ON, Canada

Here is the North York Mirror "A" Report Card entry: The first among rookies, and a real star: the councillor you’re glad you have if you do and wish you had if you don’t. This card-carrying Liberal has moved into the juicy middle of the Mayor David Miller circle of power – so much so that columnists and observers mistake her for a New Democrat. She took over the chairmanship of the powerful works committee in June, while returning to the heavy-lifting budget advisory committee, and has brought a balanced approach to both. Carroll also passed her Aug. 19 trial by fire – or rather rain – helping hundreds of homeowners in her ward whose basements were flooded in the late-summer deluge. Shelley Adds: Working on illegal rooming houses. MLS have closed four and are working on owners of several more. Tackled development applications with massive community engagement. Represents the City at the association of Metropolises. Conducted three-month review of TTC Budget and brought Capital Budget inside debt guidelines in her first term. She now is now Chair of Council's Budget Committee and sits on Mayor Miller's Executive Committee.
