The results indicated that waste fill was present across the entire park. • Additional historical research indicated that the “Stonehurst Ave Dump” operated during the 1910s to 1923 and likely infilled the former Cave Creek • Waste material contains ash, cinders, glass, metal, brick and porcelain. • Samples from the playground sand and shallow soil in the north half of the site met provincial standards for parkland use; underlying waste fill exceeds for various metals and PAHs Laroche Park - Renewal Project - 25 July 2018 Parc Laroche - projet de renouvellement - 25 juillet 2018 Recommendations • The City is planning to implement a risk management program to isolate the underlying impacted fill across the park • Designed to prevent direct contact with the underlying fill using an approach referred to as ‘soil capping’. Involves placement of 0.5 m of clean imported soil placed over a geotextile fabric. • City will retain an environmental consultant to be on-site for the duration of the soil excavation and capping portion of the project. • A dust control plan and traffic management plan will be developed. • Site will be routinely inspected following completion to ensure integrity of soil cap.

  • Appendix 5 Station Descriptions And
    Appendix 5 Station Descriptions and Technical Overview Stage 2 light rail transit (LRT) stations will follow the same standards, design principles, and connectivity and mobility requirements as Stage 1 Confederation Line. Proponent Teams were instructed, through the guidelines outlined in the Project Agreement (PA), to design stations that will integrate with Stage 1, which include customer facilities, accessibility features, and the ability to support the City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP) goals for public transit and ridership growth. The station features planned for the Stage 2 LRT Project will be designed and built on these performance standards which include: Barrier-free path of travel to entrances of stations; Accessible fare gates at each entrance, providing easy access for customers using mobility devices or service animals; Tactile wayfinding tiles will trace the accessible route through the fare gates, to elevators, platforms and exits; Transecure waiting areas on the train platform will include accessible benches and tactile/Braille signs indicating the direction of service; Tactile warning strips and inter-car barriers to keep everyone safely away from the platform edge; Audio announcements and visual displays for waiting passengers will precede each train’s arrival on the platform and will describe the direction of travel; Service alerts will be shown visually on the passenger information display monitors and announced audibly on the public-address system; All wayfinding and safety signage will be provided following the applicable accessibility standards (including type size, tactile signage, and appropriate colour contrast); Clear, open sight lines and pedestrian design that make wayfinding simple and intuitive; and, Cycling facilities at all stations including shelter for 80 per cent of the provided spaces, with additional space protected to ensure cycling facilities can be doubled and integrated into the station’s footprint.
