With this in mind we called the traffir: office of North York and got some very interesting informa- tion on the future of the urn. "What are the future plans for Jane St. and Maple Leaf Dr. intersection?" This is I First let us not forget that Rustic Rd. has been closed at Jane St. This puts an increased amount of traffic onto Maple Leaf Dr., especially since a traf- fie signal is in operation " Keele St; and Maple Leaf Dr. The reasons advanced for de- laying the traffic light at Jane and Maple Leaf in two-fold- it would cause Increased traffic across from Keele St. and lack of sidewalks on Maple Leaf Dr. would create a traffie hazard.
