    Acknowledgments The site of Exhibition Place has had a long tradition as a gathering place. Given its location on the water, these lands would have attracted Indigenous populations before recorded history. We acknowledge that the land occupied by Exhibition Place is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Metis peoples. We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaties signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands. Figure 1.

  • Toronto Tunnels Plan
    TORONTO TUNNELS PLAN 1 Toronto Tunnels Plan After reviewing traffic counts and traffic patterns throughout the City of Toronto using the latest traffic counts from the City’s transportation department, it clearly shows that the west end of the city has higher traffic levels and is prone to gridlock more than the east end. For example, traffic volumes on Highway 401 at Keele Street reach a peak of approximately 400,000 vehicles per day while volumes on Highway 401 in Scarborough is approximately 200,000 vehicles per day. Similarly, traffic volumes on the Gardiner Expressway at Dunn Avenue is approximately 200,000 vehicles per day while volume at Cherry Street at the expressway’s east end is approximately 85,000 vehicles per day. Also, there is a lack of a continuous north-south expressway between Highway 401 and the Gardiner Expressway between Highway 427 and the Don Valley Parkway, which is a width of nearly 20 kilometres. The only exception is the incomplete Allen Expressway which terminates at Eglinton Avenue. This area is served by a 2 network of local streets which are very narrow and often congested. Similarly, Highway 400 turns into Black Creek Drive south of Highway 401, which is a heavily congested arterial road which connects into very narrow local streets south of Eglinton Avenue. The area bounded by Highway 401 in the north, Highway 427 in the west, the Don Valley Parkway in the east and the Gardiner Expressway in the south is entirely made up of narrow four-lane local streets which are heavily congested and serving local businesses.
