Routing Changes - Junction Area Study Update
For Action Routing Changes - Junction Area Study Update Date: July 10, 2018 To: TTC Board From: Chief Customer Officer Summary The TTC bus network is very mature. In order to ensure that the network continues to reflect the way our customers travel across the city, staff has developed a program to review different segments of the city over time. This report provides an update on the status of the Junction Area Study. The objective of the study is to improve transit travel for customers by restructuring the bus route network in the Junction Area. In spring 2017, the TTC began the study with a customer survey to better understand customer travel patterns in the Junction Area. Feedback was also collected on existing services to identify key concerns for customers. Three key issues were identified: • No continuous transit service along Dundas Street West between Dundas West Station and Kipling Station; • No continuous transit service along St Clair Avenue West between Gunn's Loop (Weston Road) and Scarlett Road; and, • Need to extend the 80 Queensway from its current eastern terminus at Humber Loop to Keele Station via Parkside Drive in the late evening and on Sundays and holidays. Based on this feedback, staff prepared and proposed a preliminary transit network to reflect the data collected and address concerns raised by customers. The new transit network includes a number of service proposals that include restructuring and rationalizing existing services and improving periods of service on routes. In May 2018, the TTC held public information sessions at Runnymede, High Park, and Dundas West stations, and Gunn’s Loop to share the proposed transit network with customers and to collect feedback on the proposals. -
Dodging the 'Perfect Storm'
Dodging the ‘Perfect Storm’ Conservation Ontario’s Business Case for Strategic Reinvestment in Ontario’s Flood Management Programs, Services, and Structures September 2013 Introduction Flooding in Calgary, Alberta and more recently in Toronto, Ontario reminds us just how vulnerable we are when it comes to extreme weather events. The loss of life, devastation, long term social and economic disruption and the staggering cleanup costs in the aftermath of these floods clearly demonstrates how essential it is to have actionable guidelines, policies and programs in place to manage these events.

Source: CTV News 1 Dodging the ‘Perfect Storm’ – Conservation Ontario’s Business Case for Strategic Reinvestment in Ontario’s Flood Management Programs and Services, and Structures (2013) In Ontario, flooding is the leading cause of public emergency.1 To date, Ontario’s programs to manage floods and regulate floodplains have proven extremely effective and, indeed, the Ontario government has been a leading jurisdiction in Canada for flood planning and management. While much has been accomplished, several factors, if not addressed directly and quickly, will significantly jeopardize the ability of Conservation Authorities and all levels of governments to maintain and improve on this level of management and protection. Flood management is a shared responsibility in Ontario and Conservation Authorities are on the front lines of the Provincial Flood Forecasting and Warning program. In addition, Conservation Authorities bring added protection and benefits through watershed planning, watershed stewardship/natural heritage system management, monitoring and many other programs they deliver. -
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.

Hurricane Hazel—Central Ontario (1954)
Name : ______________________________________________________ Briefing Sheet #4 Hurricane Hazel—Central Ontario (1954) Hurricane Hazel created severe flooding in central Ontario, washing out more than 50 bridges and leaving many residents without homes. Hurricane Hazel, the eighth tropical storm of the Atlantic hurricane season of 1954, was the worst of the year. The storm was so deadly that the name was retired from use. It killed a thousand people in Haiti, spread destruction and death along the coast of the Carolinas as a category 4 hurricane, and was still a category 1 hurricane on October 15 when it reached Toronto, more than 1,000 kilometres from its origin. In less than 24 hours, 200 millimetres of rain fell, and rivers flooded.Water levels rose by as much as 8 metres. Winds of 110 kilometres an hour buffeted buildings and scattered debris. Another 81 people were killed in central Ontario by Hazel, most of them in Toronto. The flooding caused massive damage, washing out more than 50 of Toronto’s bridges, including some on major highways. Streets were washed away, as were railways, houses and other buildings. Thousands were left without homes. The total damage in Toronto was estimated at $25 million in 1954 dollars. A flash flood in Toronto’s Humber River was devastating. One section of Raymore Drive, which ran parallel to the river, was completely washed away: the street, the homes on it, and the people in them. Thirty-five people died. In Woodbridge, nine other people were killed by the Humber’s flash flood, and dozens of houses were ruined. -

Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Surface Water Quantity
Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Surface Water Quantity 2008 Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Surface Water Quantity EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • As of 2002, only one quarter (25%) of the total urban area in the Humber River watershed had stormwater management controls in place to treat urban run-off prior to it being released to receiving watercourses. • The majority of annual stream flow in both the Main and East Humber subwatersheds is generated by groundwater discharge (baseflow) due to the permeable soils and hummocky terrain of the Oak Ridges Moraine area, predominantly rural land uses and presence of aquifers. • The Oak Ridges Moraine, particularly its southernmost extent, and the Iroquois Sand Plain are major influences on the distribution of baseflow in the watershed. Both of these physiographic regions are characterized by highly permeable soils and underlying geology (sand and gravel) which produce high rates of infiltration and groundwater discharge to streams. • Half (50%) of the total stream flow in the Humber River during baseflow conditions originates from within the Main Humber and East Humber subwatersheds. Secondary subwatersheds observed to be major contributors to baseflow are Upper Main, Centreville Creek and Purpleville Creek. • Baseflows in the West Humber subwatershed are low with large tributaries becoming dry during summer months. The majority of stream flow is generated by surface run-off due to low permeability soils, impervious surfaces, and in some areas no aquifers being present. • The majority of baseflow in the West Humber originates from the west branch. • Seasonal variations in baseflow and minimum sustained baseflow rates at long term stream gauge sites have not changed significantly since continuous monitoring began in the late 1950s. -
