City of Toronto 2006 Transportation Fact Book DRAFT DRAFT 2006 Transportation Fact Book Street Tree Program (Trees within the Public Right-of-Way) Landscaping is a key issue along Regional roads and in medians. The use of trees and other plantings can enhance the streetscaping of Regional roads and the pedestrian environment, as well as reduce noise and air pollution. Landscaping increases real estate values and acts as a traffic calming measure. Tree planting, tree maintenance, and other related streetscaping components along Regional roads will continue in accordance with the Region’s streetscaping policy and Regional standards for six lane roads. The planting of trees along arterial roadways continues to increase in conjunction with capital projects, local enhancements, infill planting and requests. Tree maintenance requirements also continue to increase. A tree health assessment was conducted in 2003, and a Street Tree asset inventory was completed in 2006. Natural Heritage and Forestry Services Staff will continue to refine tree planting guidelines, criteria, standards and review appropriate maintenance practices including: watering, soil modification, use of rodent guards, fertilization, and pruning. Trees are typically placed a minimum of 2.5 metres back from the curb in order to protect them from salt spray, vehicle impacts, allow for proper sightlines and snow storage. Street Tree planting locations are often defined by a balance of tree health considerations, utility locations, streetscaping features, sidewalks and property limits. It is recognized that Street Trees are an integral part of communities and contribute to a sense of place. In 2006, approximately 3,000 Street Trees were planted within the Regional road allowance. For more information on the Region’s streetscaping initiatives please contact: Roads Branch Transportation and Works Department Tel: (905) 895-1200 ext. 5272 Toll Free: 1-877-464-9675 ext. 5272 Illumination (Street lighting) Providing street lighting is the responsibility of the Region at intersections of Regional roads and the responsibility of local municipalities between intersections. Appropriate lighting must address the needs of vehicles as well as pedestrians. Properly lit urban streets not only increase pedestrian safety, but attract pedestrian activity to an area. Consistent standards for well-designed lighting, like good building design, will enhance the aesthetics of the street. In 2006 the Region owned and maintained approximately 4500 streetlights, and maintained approximately 500 more for other jurisdictions including MTO and 407ETR along the Regional road network. 18 Transportation Infrastructure Transportation Infrastructure 19 2006 Transportation Fact Book DRAFT DRAFT 2006 Transportation Fact Book Sidewalks There are 470 linear kilometres of existing sidewalks along Lake Simcoe York Region roads.

    TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY DRAFT PLAN OF SUBDIVISION FINAL ▪ MARCH 2019 REPORT PREPARED FOR BALLYMORE BUILDING (BARRIE) CORP. 12840 YONGE STREET RICHMOND HILL, ON L4E 4H1 REPORT PREPARED BY THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GROUP LTD. 8800 DUFFERIN STREET, SUITE 200 VAUGHAN, ON L4K 0C5 (905) 738-5700 TMIG PROJECT NUMBER 17163 this report has been formatted for double-sided printing BALLYMORE BUILDING (BARRIE) TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY CORP. DRAFT PLAN OF SUBDIVISION FINAL • MARCH 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Ballymore Building (Barrie) Corp. retained The Municipal Infrastructure Group (TMIG) to prepare this traffic impact study in support of the proposed Draft Plan of Subdivision residential development located on a 26.4 Hectare parcel of land in the south half of Lot 16, Concession 11 within what is known as Phase 1 and Phase 3 lands of the Hewitt’s Secondary Plan in the City of Barrie. This report determines the Ballymore-related site traffic and the subsequent traffic-related impacts on the adjacent road network during the weekday AM and PM peak hours. The proposed subdivision is situated adjacent to the north side of Lockhart Road, abutting the east side of the CN Rail line (east of Yonge Street). Ballymore’s lands are bisected by a large Natural Heritage System (NHS), effectively splitting the development into two distinct parcels consisting of a total of 469 residential units. The northerly portion (in Hewitt’s Phase 1) of the Ballymore subdivision proposes 87 street-related freehold townhouses, while the southerly portion (in Hewitt’s Phase 3) proposes a mix of townhouses and apartments totalling approximately 382 units.

    The Regional Municipality of York Committee of the Whole Transportation Services April 8, 2021 Report of the Commissioner of Transportation Services York Region Transit 2020 System Performance Report 1. Recommendation Council receive this report for information. 2. Summary This report provides Council with an overview of York Region Transit (YRT) 2020 system performance. Key Points: COVID-19 significantly impacted transit services across the country. Staff responded with the implementation of health and safety measures to protect staff, contractors, and travellers. York Region Transit reduced service, and internal operational cost reductions were put in place to address the financial impact from COVID-19 Approximately 15,000 citizens used YRT services for their daily commute, a decrease of 61% over 2019 YRT Mobility On-Request service was implemented in areas where conventional transit was cancelled due to COVID-19 and this provided options for travellers who relied on transit to connect with the rest of the system for work, shopping and medical appointments Projects identified in the Region’s business plan prior to COVID-19 were delivered, including the opening of 17 new kilometres of bus rapidway, operating the Region’s first electric buses, the purchase of the Newmarket Bus Terminal and completion of several asset management-related programs Fare integration continued to be a priority as staff collaborated with Metrolinx and other Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) transit agencies to harmonize fare age categories, begin the process of setting fare policy, and identify needed technology to support fare and service integration across the GTHA 1 3. Background York Region Transit delivers a variety of services to meet the unique needs of communities across the Region York Region’s large geographic area and unique mix of rural, suburban, and urban communities require YRT operations and services to be managed economically and innovatively while delivering transit service in all nine local municipalities.
