College-Carlton 506 Streetcar Route Construction Notice Construction Notice July 30, 2018 Sidewalk Construction along the 506 Streetcar Route: College Street, Carlton Street, Gerrard Street East and Others Expected Start Date: Late Summer 2018 Expected End Date: Fall 2018 *Timeline is subject to change. Future notice to be provided. 506 CARLTON Route The City of Toronto will be reconstructing sidewalks to install curb cuts/ramps along the 506 CARLTON route. This work will make the route accessible for people using mobility devices (such as wheelchairs and walkers), allowing anyone to easily board the new low-floor streetcars in the near future. Construction work will be carried out in large sections of sidewalk at TTC stops along the complete route. This work is part of the Council-approved 2018 Capital Works Program, and will bring all stops to a state of good repair. As part of these upgrades, some TTC stops will be permanently relocated to new locations to meet the requirements for the new longer streetcars, and for improved safety. Page 1 of 2 Construction Notice TRANSIT IMPACTS DURING CONSTRUCTION During construction, some 506 CARLTON stops may be taken out of service and temporary stops placed nearby. “Out of Service” signs will be installed and temporary stop markers will be posted. 506 CARLTON buses will continue to operate to High Park Station in the west end via Parkside Drive and Bloor Street, in both directions. Bus service will be in place until late 2018, coinciding with construction at Gerrard and Broadview, and at Main Street Station. WHAT TO EXPECT BEFORE CONSTRUCTION Work crews will mark sidewalks and curbs requiring replacement and the locations of underground utilities, such as gas, water and cables so that the construction work does not interfere with these utilities. Near-by properties will receive notice a minimum of 48 hours before work begins with more information about the work. Work in the boulevard in front of homes and commercial properties is expected. This work includes removing and replacing driveways, municipal sidewalks and grassed boulevards, where necessary. Property owners should remove items located within City property limits (boulevard), such as landscaping and or decorative objects before work starts. If you have a sprinkler system within the boulevard, please contact the Project Manager listed below. Road and Sidewalk Access: In order to complete the work in a safe manner, there will be road and sidewalk restrictions within the construction work area. Driveway Access: The contractor will notify you of any temporary restrictions to your driveway access. If your property has two entrances, one entrance will be kept open at all times. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times. Laneways: Laneways and driveways that serve businesses in the area will remain accessible for deliveries or service Accommodation: Residents that require accommodation must contact the project manager to arrange for access during construction. MORE INFORMATION: If you have questions about the upcoming work, please contact us.

  • Transit's Lost Decade
    Transit’s Lost Decade: How Paying More for Less is Killing Public Transit A report prepared by Steve Munro And The Rocket Riders Transit User Group About the Rocket Riders: The Rocket Riders Transit Users Group is made up of users and supporters of public transit in the Greater Toronto area. Our Mission is to support the efforts of the TTC and other transit authorities to provide a wide range of high quality, cost-efficient transit services during a time of massive financial cutbacks. We are concerned with public safety, public education, educating municipal policy-makers and the business community, as well as maintaining and/or increasing funding available to transit. The Rocket Riders are a caucus of the Toronto Environmental Alliance. For more information, contact: The Rocket Riders Transit Users Group c/o the Toronto Environmental Alliance 201-30 Duncan Street Toronto, ON M5V-2C3 Tel. (416) 596-0500 Fax (416) 596-0345 E-mail: [email protected] Web: www.rocketriders.org The Rocket Riders gratefully acknowledge the support of the Toronto Atmospheric Fund, Transport Canada’s Moving on Sustainable Transportation program and the Toronto Environmental Alliance Educational Foundation. Toronto’s Transit System in Crisis Toronto’s transit system is in sorry shape. A quick comparison with the year 1990 shows ridership is down nearly 10%, fares have doubled in some cases, and most importantly the quality of bus and streetcar service has markedly dropped. Serious problems have also emerged for the Wheel-Trans system. In short we are paying more and getting less. Reduced funding from the provincial and municipal governments has been the main problem in the lost decade.

  • Appendix 4: Integration of TTC Services with Smarttrack
    Appendix 4: Integration of TTC Services with SmartTrack APPENDIX 4 INTEGRATION OF TTC SERVICES WITH SMARTTRACK 1. STUDY OBJECTIVES This appendix summarizes work that is being led by the TTC to integrate TTC services with SmartTrack. Ongoing work is being undertaken to: • Identify existing and planned future TTC services that could provide convenient and customer-friendly connections to SmartTrack stations; • Provide the best-possible opportunities for travelers to take advantage of this new rapid transit service; and • Allow SmartTrack to function, in general, as an integral part of the TTC network. Integrating TTC services with SmartTrack will ensure that Toronto residents are provided with maximum choice of travel options. 2. UNDERLYING PRINCIPLES OF SERVICE CONNECTIONS AND CHANGES The TTC’s approved Service Standards require that any change to a TTC service must be a net advantage or benefit to travelers. That is, after identifying, measuring, weighting, and assessing all effects of the service change, the change will be implemented only if the net effect on all customers – existing and new – is positive. 3. PROCESS As part of the City-led SmartTrack Study Team, TTC staff are identifying and recommending TTC services that could be connected to SmartTrack stations. This is a multi-step process: Identification of Candidate Routes All routes which intersect with, pass by, or are in reasonable proximity to a SmartTrack station are examined for connection potential. Each route is examined with respect to its potential ability to attract or generate local travel. This ensures that the connection or transfer would be a meaningful or logical one. This is done by considering factors such as: duplication of services, degree of diversion, frequency of service (potential waiting times), other rapid transit connections made by the same route, and known or planned network changes (forthcoming subway extensions, light rail lines, etc).
