Revised Recommendations: Eglinton Crosstown LRT Stations Naming
STAFF REPORT To: Metrolinx Board of Directors From: Leslie Woo, Chief Planning Officer Date: January 14, 2016 Re: Revised Recommendations: Eglinton Crosstown LRT Stations and Stops Naming Executive Summary: Staff is seeking final approval of Eglinton Crosstown LRT station and stop names (Appendix A). The December 3, 2015 report of the Chief Planning Officer recommended Eglinton Crosstown LRT Station and Stop Names based on the Naming Principles and Protocols developed following a 12 month (between late 2014 and late 2015) long engagement process with GTHA local transit operators (Appendix B). The public was encouraged to provide feedback on proposed station and stop names online in October 2015. The Toronto Transit Commission also provided its own recommendations on the proposed names at its meeting of November 23, 2015. At the December 3, 2015 Board meeting, three recommended location names were questioned: Lebovic, Forest Hill and Fairbank and staff were to report back on the basis of this Board feedback. Since the December 3, 2015 meeting staff undertook: • a deeper analysis and exploration of possible alternative names for these three locations; and • sought additional feedback from local councillors and MPPs on the three locations. The revised recommendations are i) to use Hakimi in place of Lebovic; ii) no change be made to Forest Hill; and iii) no change be made to Fairbank. In addition, staff plan to use in-station way-finding to assist customers in navigating between stations and the surface street system. As well, Toronto Councillor Thompson raised the question on the naming of the “Golden Mile” station. No change is being proposed by staff.
