The Newsletter is mailed monthly to members of the Society in good standing. Membership fee is .$17 for January 1981 to December 1981 inclusive. COVER- A pair of TTC H5 subway cars were appropriately decorated for the official opening of the Bloor-Danforth Subway extensions, on Friday, Nov. 21, 1980. —TTC photos by Ted Wickson QUOTE OF THE MONTH- (Extracts from an editorial in the Toronto Star of November 5, chosen by the Newsletter particularly to mark the completion of the Kennedy and Kipling extensions): "In the past two years the politicians... have ducked the hard decision about investing in the TTC as a force that could determine the future development of Metro—the fastest, — most convenient form of public transit is the kind that runs on fixed rail such as the subway or LRT—Even in the fitful economy of the '80's, a new transit line can have a stimulating effect. Metro needs more of them. The next obvious one is an east-west line along Eglinton, Sheppard or Finch Avenues—If politicians show a bit of nerve and build fixed rail transit into thinly populated areas, experience has shown these soon become thickly populated areas.

  • Assessment of Provincial Proposals Line 2 East Extension
    EX9.1 Attachment 5 – Assessment of Provincial Proposals Line 2 East Extension As directed by City Council in April 2019, City and TTC staff have assessed the Province’s proposed 3-stop Line 2 East Extension. The details of this assessment are provided in this attachment. 1. Project Summary 1.1 Project Description The Line 2 East Extension (L2EE), as proposed by the Province, is an approximately 8 kilometre underground extension of Line 2 Bloor-Danforth from Kennedy Station that will have three stations – at Lawrence and McCowan, Scarborough Centre and Sheppard and McCowan, as shown in Figure 1. The Province's plan for the L2EE is similar to what was being planned by the City and TTC prior to 2016. Figure 1 - Line 2 East Extension Reference Map Note: Map produced by City/TTC based on current understanding of project Attachment 5 – Assessment of Line 2 East Extension Page 1 of 9 As proposed, the extension will be fully integrated with the existing Line 2 and have through service at Kennedy Station. A turn-back may be included east of Kennedy Station to enable reduced service to Scarborough Centre, subject to demand and service standards. The extension will require approximately seven additional six-car, 138-metre-long trains to provide the service. The trains would be interoperable with the other trains on Line 2. With the station at Sheppard and McCowan supporting storage of up to six trains, there is sufficient storage and maintenance capacity existing at the TTC’s Line 2 storage and maintenance facilities to accommodate this increase in fleet size.

  • Kipling Bus Terminal – Bus Access, Operations and Maintenance Agreement
    11.2 Date: May 25, 2020 Originator’s files: To: Mayor and Members of Council From: Geoff Wright, P.Eng, MBA, Commissioner of Meeting date: Transportation and Works June 17, 2020 Subject Kipling Bus Terminal – Bus Access, Operations and Maintenance Agreement Recommendation That a By-law be enacted to authorize the Commissioner of Transportation and Works and the City Clerk to execute on behalf of The Corporation of the City of Mississauga, the Bus Access, Operations and Maintenance Agreement with Metrolinx and any amendments and/or ancillary documents thereto, for the access, operations and maintenance of the Kipling Bus Terminal, all in a form satisfactory to the City Solicitor. Report Highlights In alignment with direction from The Big Move (2008), Metrolinx initiated the detailed design and construction of the Kipling Bus Terminal in 2018. Substantial completion is planned for fall 2020 with the intent for MiWay to shift services from Islington Station to the Kipling Bus Terminal at the end of 2020 or early 2021. As Metrolinx is the owner and operator of the Kipling Bus Terminal and as MiWay will have the right to utilize the terminal and its facilities for its transit related purposes, the City of Mississauga (the “City”) and Metrolinx are required to enter into an agreement setting out the terms of use, operations and maintenance responsibilities and cost sharing obligations. The Bus Access, Operations and Maintenance Agreement has been prepared by City staff and Metrolinx, and this new Agreement will replace the existing Kipling Station Redevelopment Memorandum of Understanding signed on March 7, 2017 and as amended on March 21, 2018.

  • New Memorandum of Understanding for Kipling Station Redevelopment
    GM13.20 STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED New Memorandum of Understanding for Kipling Station Redevelopment Date: May 30, 2016 To: Government Management Committee From: Chief Corporate Officer Wards: 5 – Etobicoke Lakeshore Reference P:\2016\Internal Services\RE\Gm16029re (AFS 22876) Number: SUMMARY At its meeting held on December 11, 12, and 13, 2007, City Council adopted the Recommendations contained in Item GM10.10 of the Government Management Committee authorizing the execution of a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") setting out the framework for agreements among the City, TTC, GO Transit and Mississauga Transit regarding the construction of a new interregional bus terminal at Kipling Station and the proposed modification to the TTC Kipling Station lands ("Kipling Station Redevelopment"). This draft MOU was never signed by the parties. Since that time, the design concept for the Kipling Station Redevelopment has been changed resulting in changes to the Metrolinx requirements of City-owned property, and consequently the 2007 Council approved Recommendations and approval of the terms of the previous MOU are no longer applicable. This report seeks authority for City Council to rescind the earlier 2007 Council Authority and to authorize the Chief Corporate Officer to execute a new MOU setting out the business arrangements amongst the City, TTC, Metrolinx and City of Mississauga to facilitate the new design of the Kipling Station Redevelopment which will include, among other improvements, a new interregional bus terminal at a revised location (the "Metrolinx Terminal") and the reconfiguration of the TTC commuter parking and improvements at Kipling Station. The basis of this new MOU will be substantially on the terms and conditions as contained in Appendix 1.

  • Planning for Mobility Hubs: Creating Great Transit Places
    Planning for Mobility Hubs: Creating Great Transit Places Lisa Salsberg, Manager, Strategic Policy and Systems Planning, Metrolinx Abril Novoa Camino, Intern, Strategic Policy and Systems Planning, Metrolinx David Sajecki, Policy Advisor, Strategic Policy and Systems Planning, Metrolinx Joshua Engel-Yan, Senior Policy Advisor, Strategic Policy and Systems Planning, Metrolinx Paper prepared for Best Practices in Urban Transportation Planning 2010 Annual Conference of the Transportation Association of Canada September 26-29 Halifax, Nova Scotia Abstract The Big Move is Metrolinx’s Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA). This plan is the third element in the Province of Ontario’s three part approach to environmental, social and economic sustainability in the region, with the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe and the Greenbelt Plan dealing primarily with land use issues. Essential to the success of the Province’s strategy is the efficient coordination of land use and transportation planning and the seamless integration of the different elements of the regional transportation system. The 51 Mobility Hubs across the GTHA are places where local and regional rapid transit services come together in areas planned to accommodate high densities of people and jobs in mixed use environments. As the key nodes of integration in the regional transportation system, Mobility Hubs need to be carefully planned with consideration for complex transit operations, diverse stakeholder interests, short term as well as long term needs, and a number of geographic scales – from the station to the neighbourhood and the transportation network. This paper discusses the Mobility Hub concept and compares it to the recent experience in planning for the future of the Kipling Interregional Station, the first Mobility Hub plan in the GTHA.

  • Transit Network Expansion
    2051.8 For Action Transit Network Expansion Date: February 10, 2021 To: TTC Board From: Deputy Chief Executive Officer Chief Capital Officer Summary The TTC and its partners at Metrolinx, Infrastructure Ontario, the Province of Ontario, and the City of Toronto are in the midst of the largest transit network expansion program in decades. The TTC continues to play a key role in the planning, technical review, and implementation of all major transit expansion projects in Toronto and the region. These include the Toronto Light Rail Transit Program and the provincial priority subway projects, referred to collectively as the “Subways Program”: the Ontario Line; the Scarborough Subway Extension; the Yonge North Subway Extension; and the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension. By 2031, the TTC will operate a network of six subway and light rail transit lines and is expected to maintain the track, track and tunnel infrastructure, system wide systems, and fleet for the extensions to Lines 1 and 2. The TTC is in discussions with Metrolinx on roles and responsibilities for maintenance of stations infrastructure on the extensions to Lines 1 and 2 which will be evaluated through a business case analysis. The TTC is closely involved in all major transit projects in the City of Toronto during project delivery through provision of alternate service to manage route diversions and with transit development in adjacent municipalities recognizing links to existing and planned future TTC service. Safety, accessibility, and customer service will always be at the core of TTC operations. The TTC is responsible for the TTC customer experience and for a seamless end-to- end customer journey during transit expansion project delivery and as the network operator when the new line or line extension opens for service.
