From: Everett Buntsma
Director, Community Services
Subject: Traffic and Parking By-law, Liverpool Road
Amendment to By-law 6604/05
File: A-1440
Recommendation:
1. That Report CS 31-11 of the Director, Community Services 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 Schedule "2" to By-law
6604/05 to provide for the regulation of parking on highways or parts of
highways under the jurisdiction of the Corporation of the City of Pickering.
Executive Summary: Due to recently completed improvements to Liverpool Road
between Annland Street and Wharf Street, including the construction of parking lay-bys,
City staff have removed the existing `No Parking' signage on the west side in this
section of Liverpool Road and recommend that the municipal Traffic and Parking By-
law 6604/05 be amended to allow parking on both sides of Liverpool Road between
Annland Street and Wharf Street.
Financial Implications: The removal of no parking signs has no financial
implications.
Sustainability Implications: The traffic concerns as presented and the
recommendations, as generated by staff, address traffic safety issues within the social
objectives of corporate sustainability.
Background: In July 2011, improvements to Liverpool Road between Annland
Street and Wharf Street were completed and included the construction of parking lay-
bys. Prior to the construction of the parking lay-bys, the west side of Liverpool Road
from Annland Street to Wharf Street was designated as a "no parking" area. To avoid
confusion and to promote parking in the lay-bys, the No Parking signs have since been
removed on this section of roadway.

Parking By-law 6604/05 be amended to allow parking on both sides of Liverpool Road
between Annland Street and Wharf Street.
The removed "no parking" area and recently constructed parking lay-bys on Liverpool
Road between Annland Street and Wharf Street are shown graphically in Attachment 1.
