Here the undersigned, in order to advance school, street and pedestrian safety, request from the City of Toronto Transportation Services and Toronto Police Services the following:

To install a controlled intersection with a crossing guard at the corner of Sunbeam Avenue and Faywood Boulevard to safely service the morning and afternoon pedestrian traffic coming to, and going from the school across Faywood Boulevard.

Why we are requesting this:

This year Faywood has 18 buses using the bus loop and as a result it is inaccessible to parents wishing to drive their children to school. Since many families had used the loop for drop off and pick up prior to this, they now are parking across the street on Sunbeam Avenue and then walking across Faywood Boulevard to the school entrance. Faywood Boulevard is a busy street during the rush hours and this crossing is unsafe as it stands now without a stop sign, marked crosswalk or crossing guard. We are working with our local City Councillor and School Board Trustee to ensure a safe intersection is implemented quickly through the City of Toronto Transportation Service (they put up stop signs or crosswalks) and Toronto Police Services (they supply the crossing guards) to ensure a safe environment for all our students as well as for the community as a whole. We need parent and community support to help push this initiative through the system as quickly as possible. With winter coming, the need for this only increases.

Please help support our cause by signing this petition.

Your signatures and personal information will not be used in any other way other than to promote this petition.

Thank you for your help!
