For Information Chief Executive Officer's Report – October 2047.1 For Information Chief Executive Officer’s Report – October 2020 Update Date: October 22, 2020 To: TTC Board From: Chief Executive Officer Summary The Chief Executive Officer’s Report is submitted each month to the TTC Board, for information. Copies of the report are also forwarded to each City of Toronto Councillor, the Deputy City Manager, and the City Chief Financial Officer, for information. The report is also available on the TTC’s website. Financial Summary The monthly Chief Executive Officer’s Report focuses primarily on performance and service standards. There are no financial impacts associated with the Board’s receipt of this report. Equity/Accessibility Matters The TTC strives to deliver a reliable, safe, clean, and welcoming transit experience for all of its customers, and is committed to making its transit system barrier-free and accessible to all. This is at the forefront of TTC’s new Corporate Plan 2018-2022. The TTC strongly believes all customers should enjoy the freedom, independence, and flexibility to travel anywhere on its transit system. The TTC measures, for greater accountability, its progress towards achieving its desired outcomes for a more inclusive and accessible transit system that meets the needs of all its customers. This progress includes the TTC’s Easier Access Program, which is on track to making all subway stations accessible by 2025. It also includes the launch of the Family of Services pilot and improved customer service through better on-time service delivery with improved shared rides, and same day bookings to accommodate Family of Service Trips. These initiatives will help TTC achieve its vision of a seamless, barrier free transit system that makes Toronto proud. CEO’s Report – October 2020 Update Page 1 of 2 Decision History The Chief Executive Officer’s Report, which was created in 2012 to better reflect the Chief Executive Officer’s goal to completely modernize the TTC from top to bottom, was transformed to be more closely aligned with the TTC’s seven strategic objectives – safety, customer, people, assets, growth, financial sustainability, and reputation. In 2018, with the launch of the new Corporate Plan, this report has undergone progressive changes to align and reflect our reporting metrics to the TTC’s continued transformation. Issue Background For each strategic objective, updates of current and emerging issues and multi-year performance are now provided, along with a refreshed performance dashboard that reports on the customer experience. This information is intended to keep the reader completely up-to-date on the various initiatives underway at the TTC that, taken together, will help the TTC achieve its vision of a transit system that makes Toronto proud.

  • Rapid Transit in Toronto Levyrapidtransit.Ca TABLE of CONTENTS
    The Neptis Foundation has collaborated with Edward J. Levy to publish this history of rapid transit proposals for the City of Toronto. Given Neptis’s focus on regional issues, we have supported Levy’s work because it demon- strates clearly that regional rapid transit cannot function eff ectively without a well-designed network at the core of the region. Toronto does not yet have such a network, as you will discover through the maps and historical photographs in this interactive web-book. We hope the material will contribute to ongoing debates on the need to create such a network. This web-book would not been produced without the vital eff orts of Philippa Campsie and Brent Gilliard, who have worked with Mr. Levy over two years to organize, edit, and present the volumes of text and illustrations. 1 Rapid Transit in Toronto levyrapidtransit.ca TABLE OF CONTENTS 6 INTRODUCTION 7 About this Book 9 Edward J.

    Upper Canada Railway Society Number220 May1964 25 c per copy Page 62 U.C.R.S. Newsletter As the day operations of the T.T.C. commenced during the early hours of March 30, 1954, a casual visitor to the city would never have expected how profoundly different would be the pattern of operations by the time that day's operations were concluding some 18 hours later. Although some preliminary routing changes had been made in North Toronto earlier in the month (including the cutback of the YONGE carline from Glen Echo Loop to Eglinton Traffic Office early on March 7th), transit services in the downtown area on the morning of March 30th were as they had been for a long period of time. A stir of excitement was in the air, however, and was pervasive of the gen­ eral populace in addition to T.T.C. personnel and Toronto's railway enthusiasts, as the long awaited day of opening of the Yonge Street Subway had finally arrived. The 4.6 mile line, first seriously proposed by the T.T.C. early in 1945, the sub­ ject of a civic referendum on January 1, 1946, and on which construction had commenced on September 8, 1949, \vas finally ready for public use. All had been in physical readiness for some weeks past while final testing of equipment and train­ ing of operating and supervisory personnel was in progress. The March 30th opening date had been selected in lieu of the beginning of the year 1954 some time pre­ viously, owing to delays in certain phases of construction.

  • Schedule "I" by Changing the Right-Of-Way Widths For
    1 City of Toronto By-law 1284-2018 Amendment 405 to the Official Plan of the City of Toronto Amendment 405 to the Official Plan of the City of Toronto is as follows: 1. Section 2.2.2 Centres: Vital Mixed Use Communities of the Official Plan is amended by deleting the non-statutory text related to Yonge-Eglinton Centre and replacing it with the following: Yonge-Eglinton Centre is situated in Midtown Toronto with a more central location in Toronto’s transit network than the other Centres. The Centre is at the crossroads of the Yonge subway line and the Eglinton Crosstown light rapid transit line, both of which bisect the City. At this strategic location, the Centre serves as a major employment centre and an important institutional, retail and entertainment destination, highly accessible for a large segment of Toronto. Yonge-Eglinton Centre incorporates a variety of streetscapes and neighbourhoods in a compact form. The diverse mix of uses, range of housing options and conveniently accessible transportation options, community facilities, parks and open spaces are enjoyed by a growing residential population and contribute to a complete and liveable community. Yonge-Eglinton Centre will continue to prosper as a dynamic live-work district. The Centre will be marked by tall buildings and an intense concentration of office, retail, institutional and residential uses at the Yonge-Eglinton intersection. The scale and intensity of development will transition down in all directions. New mixed-use development on Yonge Street, Eglinton Avenue and Mount Pleasant Road will contribute to the public realm on these busy streets and broaden the area's offering of stores, services and community facilities.
