    Canadian Consulting Engineering Awards 2011 Project Entry for DUFFERIN STREET UNDERPASS Toronto, Ontario Association of Consulting Engineering Companies Dufferin Street Underpass 2011 Awards Toronto, Ontario TABLE OF CONTENTS Signed Official Entry Form ................................................................................ i Entry Consent Form ......................................................................................... ii PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS .................................................................................................. 1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION ................................................................................................ 1 TOC iii Association of Consulting Engineering Companies Dufferin Street Underpass 2011 Awards Toronto, Ontario PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS For more than one hundred years, the southbound journey on Dufferin Street in Toronto, Ontario was stopped short by a major, multi-track rail corridor. Cars, buses and emergency vehicles alike were forced to turn left, entering the infamous "Dufferin Jog". This three block circuitous route through a residential neighborhood added only time and confusion to those wishing to travel further south. Delcan was contracted to remedy this by designing and engineering a smart solution that would seamlessly link the two parts of Dufferin Street. The City of Toronto billed this project as an exercise in "urban place-making", wanting to both improve access and revitalize a community at the same time. Delcan's crisp urban design met these requirements

    Canadian Jewish Studies / Études juives canadiennes, vol. 31, 2021 181 Donna Bernardo-Ceriz A Jewish Tale of Suburbia: Bathurst Manor 182 Donna Bernado-Ceriz / A Jewish Tale of Suburbia: Bathurst Manor How does one tell the story of a neighbourhood? If examining the changing and de- veloping physical landscape, then records are in no short supply at various govern- ment archives: census records, municipal planning records, maps, assessment roles, directories, building surveys, and aerial photographs, to name only a few. Retelling the experiences of a community of people, however, requires a slightly different re- search strategy. Personal papers, photographs, letters, home movies, and oral histo- ries offer a glimpse into the lives of residents. Organizational records can provide insight into the cultural, religious, and social needs of a community and the services offered. But what if those records do not exist or cannot easily be located? The Ontario Jewish Archives (OJA) receive over 650 research requests each year. If we divide that by the number of working days (ignoring vacations, stat, and Jewish hol- idays), that equals 2.5 inquiries every day. Some of these inquiries are fairly quick and straightforward, and some are long, protracted research endeavours. We also receive over 50,000 unique users to our website each year; researchers whom we never in- teract with and whose research we never hear about. Of these research requests, a sizable number are related to Jewish spaces and shifting landscapes. “I’m researching the history of Kensington Market”; “Do you have any records on The Ward?”; “I’d like to study the small communities in Ontario”; “I’m interested in how Bathurst Street became the spine of Toronto’s Jewish community.” While these questions may appear well defined, it is the archivist’s job to determine what the researcher is actually asking.

  • Bus Lane Implementation Plan
    2045.5 For Action Bus Lane Implementation Plan Date: July 14, 2020 To: TTC Board From: Chief Strategy & Customer Officer Summary The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that the TTC is a vital service in Toronto providing transportation to essential destinations including employment, healthcare, groceries and pharmacies. Although TTC ridership may be down to 22% of pre-pandemic levels, the TTC continues to serve hundreds of thousands of customer-trips on a daily basis. We also have learned through this pandemic, that bus customers have relied on our services the most - 36% of the customers that used buses prior to COVID-19 are still using the system as compared to 19% of subway customers, as of the week ending June 26. As the city and GTHA re-opens and recovery begins, it is expected that people who have the resources and option to, will return to private vehicles, taxis or private transportation companies (PTCs) more quickly than to transit in order to maintain physical distance from others. The TTC’s surface transit network plays a critical role in moving people around Toronto and we must enhance its attractiveness to ensure it continues to provide a viable alternative to the automobile. A key initiative to achieve this is the implementation of bus transit lanes, which will provide customers with a safe, reliable and fast service. The TTC’s 5-Year Service Plan & 10-Year Outlook identified a 20-point action plan including Action 4.1 Explore Bus Transit Lanes. The TTC has worked with partner divisions at the City to develop the following prioritization and implementation plan for the five corridors identified in the Plan.
