  • 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.

  • Official Plan Review: Transportation Policies
    January 2020 PH13.3 Attachment 6 Five-Year Official Plan Review TRANSPORTATION POLICIES PHASE 2 -PUBLIC & STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION SUMMARY REPORT DILLON CONSULTING LIMITED i Phase 2 Executive Summary In the fall of 2018, the City of Toronto (the City) retained Dillon Consulting Limited (Dillon) to design and deliver a consultation program to garner stakeholder and public feedback on draft amendments to the Official Plan (OP) Transportation Policies. The review and revision of existing transportation policies is part of the City’s Five-Year Official Plan Review process, and as such, the consultation program was designed to solicit feedback city-wide. The Consultation program was broken into two phases and this report summarizes the engagement for Phase 2. The consultation program was focused on four transportation policy topics: Transit, Cycling, Automated Vehicles and Shared Mobility, and Street Related Map and Schedules. Phase 2 Consultation began with a stakeholder workshop in April, 2019. Four public meetings (one in each district: North York, Etobicoke, Scarborough and Downtown) occurred in May, 2019. An additional stakeholder meeting was held in May, 2019 in an effort to reach out to advocates, organizations and academic researchers promoting accessibility and safety for vulnerable road and transit users, including the elderly, women, children, and people living with disabilities. A statutory public open house was held on November 26, 2019. The stakeholder and public meetings followed the same general format: a presentation of the transportation policies under review, a summary of What We Heard from the Phase 1 consultation and proposed key policy changes. This was combined with breakout discussion tables to examine each of the four policy topics under review in more detail.

  • STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Scarborough Rapid Transit Options
    STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Scarborough Rapid Transit Options Date: July 12, 2013 To: City Council From: City Manager Wards: All Reference Number: SUMMARY This report has been prepared in conjunction with the CEO of the TTC. Purpose of the Report City Council confirmed its support for the four Light Rail Transit (LRT) projects - Scarborough LRT, Eglinton Crosstown LRT, Sheppard East LRT, and Finch West LRT - in February and March 2012. Council approved the terms of the Master Agreement for the delivery of the four LRT projects in October 2012, and the agreement was signed by the City, TTC and Metrolinx in November 2012 ("The Master Agreement"). The Master Agreement provides the legal framework for the delivery of the Toronto Light Rail Transit Program, an $8.7 billion investment in Toronto's transit infrastructure. In May 2013, City Council indicated support for the extension of the Bloor-Danforth subway line from Kennedy Station to Scarborough Centre and Sheppard Avenue (the "Scarborough Subway"). As a result, Metrolinx has requested clarification on the City's commitment to the Master Agreement and the Scarborough LRT project, in a letter received June 28, 2013. The letter outlines sunk costs and other implications associated with a change in direction by the City, in addition to the transfer of $320 million of the approved $1.8 billion ($2010) Scarborough LRT budget to the Eglinton Crosstown LRT. Further, Metrolinx intends to suspend work on the Scarborough LRT if Council confirmation of support for the project is not received by August 2, 2013. The purpose of this report is to present information on the potential financial, planning and other implications of pursuing an extension of the Bloor-Danforth subway instead of Staff report for action on Scarborough Rapid Transit Options 1 the Scarborough LRT.
