Friends of Marlee Ville

The City has initiated a Visioning Study for Marlee Avenue between Eglinton Avenue West and Lawrence Avenue West. The purpose of the study is to develop a public realm and streetscaping vision and improvement strategy that will enhance this neighbourhood for pedestrians, cyclists and transit users, and expand parkland and open space.

Together we can make Marlee more welcoming, safer and support local shopping by helping report:

  1. Any graffiti, abandoned cars and garbage behind strip malls you can report it by calling 311 OR emailing them at 311@toronto.ca

  2. LCBO violations to my office at councillor_colle8@toronto.ca and in cooperation with MLS, 13 Division, Property Standards and AGCO we can help

It is local community members like YOU who want to make Marlee-Ville Better that can make a difference! Please share this with your friends and neighbours.

Traffic Control Signals Installation on Marlee Ave & Viewmount Ave

The community has spoken and there is a high demand for traffic lights at Viewmount Ave. and Marlee Ave. In response, I started a petition in support of this. The action was considered by the North York Community Council on December 3rd, 2019 and adopted by City Council on December 17th, 2019.

A study was conducted in order to review the need for upgrading the pedestrian crossover to traffic control signals. City staff were in support of this due to a high number of traffic counts and a high history of collisions.

A turning movement count was undertaken in May 2019, tracking the traffic volume through the intersection as well as pedestrian crosswalk observations. The results of the traffic count were applied to the warrant criteria for traffic control signals, thus, Transportation Services supporting the conversion of the pedestrian crossover to traffic control signals.
