Traffic and Safety

One of the most common concerns we hear from our members is related to traffic. Not only the increased volume but more importantly with respect to safety.

The IRRA is fighting hard to make our neighbourhood safe for vehicular traffic, cyclists and pedestrians.

Our particular areas of concern currently include: Burnhamthorpe Rd; Royal Avon Cres. and Bloor St W.
