TORONTO - It could make it a whole lot easier to get around downtown Toronto during rush-hour.Councillor
Michael Walker is pushing for a ban on trucks from making rush-hour
deliveries in the downtown core. That would ensure that trucks won't
block lanes during the most congested periods on Toronto's streets.
Those trucks that defy the ban would be fined. The restriction would
include all streets bounded by Jarvis, Bloor, Spadina and the Lakeshore.
Walker's proposal is on the agenda for a 3-day city council meeting, which starts Tuesday.
