Turn Prohibition – Driveway Access at No. 45 Bay Street (CIBC Square)

September 16th, 2020 Toronto East York Community Council 100 Queen Street West M5H 2N2 Toronto, ON Re: Turn Prohibition – Driveway Access at No. 45 Bay Street (CIBC Square) To the committee, 45 Bay is located in downtown Toronto in the city’s Financial District. The development site is bounded by Front Street West to the north, Lake Shore Boulevard West to the south, Bay Street to the west and Yonge Street to the east. The site is located south of Union Station and directly east of the Air Canada Centre, in the City’s South Core. Metrolinx bus terminal is contained within the eastern portion of the development, with direct pedestrian connectivity to Union Station to the east. The bus terminal has access and frontage on Lake Shore Boulevard West. As a condition of the Site Plan Agreement, the developer is required to modify the curb lane on Lake Shore Boulevard West for a partially dedicated bus lane. The developer has also agreed, as a condition of Site Plan Approval to notify City staff, in advance of the anticipated date of first occupancy of the project, to enact bylaws with respect to the proposed westbound left-turn prohibition at the driveway access on Bay Street. The intent of this prohibition is to improve operations and safety by eliminating left turns onto Bay Street and have motorists exit this location with a right-turn movement. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that: 1. City Council prohibit westbound left turns at all times at the driveway access at 45 Bay Street located on the east side of Bay Street, approximately 40 metres north of Lake Shore Boulevard West. Sincerely, Councillor Joe Cressy City Councillor Ward 10, Spadina –Fort York Councillor Joe Cressy phone: 416 392 4044 Toronto City Hall Ward 10, Spadina-Fort York email: [email protected] Suite C53 .

These goals are embodied in the first principle of the City’s Central Waterfront Secondary Plan: Remove barriers and reconnect the City with Lake Ontario. One barrier that the City had struggled to mitigate was the Gardiner Expressway ramp terminals. In 2013, the City commissioned WSP (formerly MMM Group) to complete an Environmental Study to evaluate alternatives for the reconfiguration of the F. G. Gardiner Expressway York-Bay-Yonge eastbound off ramp. Recommendations in that report included constructing a new eastbound off ramp terminating at Lower Simcoe Street and widening Harbour Street between Lower Simcoe and Bay Streets. In 2015, the City retained WSP to design a new off ramp to replace the existing York-Bay-Yonge off ramp. The existing off ramp was 700 m long and terminated at Bay Street. The new one was to terminate at Lower Simcoe Street and be 500 m shorter. WSP undertook design and overall project management for preliminary and detailed design of the new bridge structure. The structure was completed in 2018.
