Residents and motorists have complained that the corner at Lake Shore Blvd. W., just west of Park Lawn Road, near Fleeceline Road, is too tight and the TTC island dangerous for oncoming vehicles which have to hit the brakes.
They said there have been a number of collisions in and around that bend in the road.
Traffic was snarled in the area during rush hour around 8:30 a.m. on May 26.
