From:
Everett Buntsma
Director, Operations & Emergency Services
Subject:
No Stopping By-law, Liverpool Road & Sandy Beach Road
- Amendment to By-law 6604/05
File: A-2130
Recommendations:
1. That Report OES 02-07 regarding a proposed amendment to the municipal
traffic by-law 6604/05 be received; and
2. That the attached draft by-law be enacted to amend Schedules '1" and '2' to By-
law 6604/05 to provide for the regulating of parking on highways or parts of
highways under the jurisdiction of the Corporation of the City of Pickering and on
private and municipal property.
Executive Summary: In response to concerns with driveway access and roadway
traffic flow difficulties due to vehicular on street parking and stopping along:
a) the west side of Liverpool Road south of Bayly Street (fronting the Tim Hortons
Restaurant), and
b) the west side of Sandy Beach Road south of Bayly Street (fronting the
commercial plaza).
Staff hereby propose to amend the existing traffic by-law in order to establish and
clearly identify No Stopping zones in busy commercial areas and to aid enforcement
endeavors.
Financial Implications: The acquisition and installation of No Stopping signs is
estimated to cost approximately $400 and can be accommodated within the Roads
current budget account 2320.2409.

Sustainability Implications: The concerns as presented to staff and the
recommendations generated by staff are relevant to the social lens of sustainability by
addressing traffic operations and aging populace issues.
Background: In response to concerns with driveway access and roadway traffic
flow difficulties due to vehicular on street parking and stopping along:
a) the west side of Liverpool Road south of Bayly Street (fronting the Tim Hortons
Restaurant), and
b) the west side of Sandy Beach Road south of Bayly Street (fronting the
commercial plaza)
By-law staff were asked to enforce the existing No Parking restrictions in the area.
However, although municipal staff can enforce the current by-law, some drivers may not
understand that the legal definition of No Parking includes no stopping of vehicles save
and except when engaged in the pick up and discharge of passengers or goods.
Consequently, in order to provide a clear indication to drivers that stopping is prohibited
in the affected area, staff hereby propose to amend the existing traffic by-law from No
Parking to No Stopping, for the distance of the affected commercial frontages.
Note: during the investigation, staff found that the existing No Parking signs on the west
side of Sandy Beach Road, south of Bayly Street did not have corresponding by-law
endorsement, consequently the proposed recommendations would correct this
deficiency.
