  • Ontario Partners with Business to Build New Etobicoke GO Station Improving the Transit Experience and Making Life Easier for Ontarians October 25, 2018 8:00 A.M
    NEWS Ministry of Transportation Ontario Partners with Business to Build New Etobicoke GO Station Improving the transit experience and making life easier for Ontarians October 25, 2018 8:00 A.M. TORONTO — Ontario's Government for the People is keeping its promise to build transit and make Ontario open for business by working with the private sector to build commuters a new, modern station at Mimico GO. This station is the product of a new kind of partnership. This project will optimize the use of government-owned land and increase transit ridership by building a new development along an existing transit line. We are improving the transit experience and making life easier for Ontarians. Today John Yakabuski, Minister of Transportation, Steve Clark, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, Kinga Surma, Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Transportation, Christine Hogarth, MPP, Etobicoke-Lakeshore, and Phil Verster, President and CEO, Metrolinx, visited the Mimico GO Station to announce that Ontario had signed a non-binding Letter of Intent with Vandyk Group of Companies. Metrolinx and Vandyk will negotiate the construction of a new Mimico GO Station. "We are making it easier for people commuting in the GTHA," said Minister Yakabuski. "The new station we are building at Mimico is part of our plan to improve service on the Lakeshore West line to every 15 minutes or better. By working with businesses to develop this site, we are delivering on our promise that Ontario is open for business, while we get this work done at a lower cost to the taxpayer." The new Mimico GO Station will include a new, accessible station building, pedestrian tunnels and elevators, refurbished platforms and new entrances to the station and below grade parking.

  • (BRES) and Successful Integration of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) May 24, 2016
    Bolton Residential Expansion Study (BRES) and Successful Integration of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) May 24, 2016 The purpose of this memorandum is to review the professional literature pertaining to the potential develop- ment of a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) in the Bolton Residential Expansion Study area, in response to the Region of Peel’s recent release of the Discussion Paper. The Discussion Paper includes the establishment of evaluation themes and criteria, which are based on provincial and regional polices, stakeholder and public comments. It should be noted that while the Discussion Paper and the Region’s development of criteria does not specifi- cally advocate for TOD, it is the intent of this memorandum to illustrate that TOD-centric planning will not only adequately address such criteria, but will also complement and enhance the Region’s planning principles, key points and/or themes found in stakeholder and public comments. In the following are research findings related to TOD generally, and specifically, theMetrolinx Mobility Hub Guidelines For The Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (September 2011) objectives. Additionally, following a review and assessment of the “Response to Comments Submitted on the Bolton Residential Expansion Study ROPA” submission prepared by SGL Planning & Design Inc. (March 15, 2016), this memorandum evaluates some of the key arguments and assumptions made in this submission relative to the TOD research findings. Planning for Transit-Oriented Developments TOD policy and programs can result in catalytic development that creates walkable, livable neighborhoods around transit providing economic, livability and equitable benefits. The body of research on TODs in the United States has shown that TODs are more likely to succeed when project planning takes place in conjunction with transit system expansion.

  • Another Beautiful Day for Toronto Club's
    Summer 2018 THE QUARTERLY OF THE TORONTO BRUCE TRAIL CLUB Vol. LV No. 2 www.torontobrucetrailclub.org | 416-763-9061 | [email protected] Another Beautiful day for Toronto Club’s AGM Saturday, April 21, 2018 More than 150 members of our club turned out on Saturday for our Annual Meeting, held once again at the beautiful Kortright Centre on a spectacular spring day. The day started with three vigorous hikes led by Barbara Euler, Wayne Crockett and Luisa Lee, and a photography hike led by Bob Humphreys. Following lunch the business of the meeting began. I had the pleasure of reporting on another excellent year for the club, with another year of excellent work by our volunteers across all our areas of activity. The full annual report is available for download on the members’ section of our website. Our new Treasurer, Karim Mishriki, reported on solid financial results for the club. The most important number to me in our annual report is the over $23 thousand our club was able to donate the BTC this year to further our important land acquisition work. Two new directors were elected: David Royle, a well-known hike leader, and Orest Nahacziwec, who has volunteered to take over the editing of Footnotes magazine. In addition, we are welcoming back Kevin Warburton to the Board after a vacation. Congratulations to them all, we look forward to their valuable contributions going forward. During the last year, we reluctantly accepted the resignations from the board of Brenda Brazier, Paul Vanhanen and Wayne Crockett. The valuable contributions of all these three will all be missed; fortunately, Paul and Wayne remain heavily involved as volunteers in our Land Management Committee and hiking program, respectively.

  • Results of the King Street Transit Pilot
    For Action Results of the King Street Transit Pilot Date: April 11, 2019 To: TTC Board From: Chief Customer Officer Summary The King Street Transit Pilot began on November 12, 2017 providing greater priority for the TTC’s King streetcar customers between Bathurst Street and Jarvis Street over the past year and a half. From a transit perspective, the pilot project is a success: Faster and more predictable transit travel times: On average, streetcars now travel faster during all periods of the day and times are more predictable, making the service more attractive. Approximately 30,000 minutes of travel time are saved by King streetcar customers daily. More people taking transit along the King Street corridor: With more predictable travel, more people are taking King streetcars than ever, with daily weekday ridership growing by 16% from 72,000 to 84,000 boardings per day. Capacity grew on King Street through the pilot project to meet unprecedented increases in demand. Greater customer satisfaction with King streetcar service: Prior to the pilot, overall customer satisfaction with King streetcar service was low on key measures such as travel time, comfort, and wait time. Through the pilot period, customer satisfaction on all these measures has significantly improved. Improved efficiency and reliability of streetcar operations: Streetcar service on King Street is now more productive, with 25% more customers per hour of service operated. Overall reliability has improved with reduced variability in the busiest portion of the route. TTC and City staff recommend that the pilot project be made permanent as the King Street Transit Priority Corridor with immediate enhancements to the pilot design, such as improvements to streetcar stops and improved signage at intersections.

The discussions have taken place to provide City Planning input to the Metrolinx evaluation of station site options and your intended further shortlisting of options and reporting to the Metrolinx Board. Comments from City staff on the GO RER station sites has focused on planning considerations including development/city building opportunities, accessibility, and network connectivity, reflecting some of the key elements of the City’s Feeling Congested evaluation criteria for rapid transit projects. These meetings have involved City Planning staff from each District, with the exception of the East District (Scarborough) in which all new RER station sites are associated with the SmartTrack initiative. In this case, comments on these station evaluations were previously reported to the October 20, 2015 meeting of the City’s Executive Committee: http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2015.EX9.1 City comments on the remaining GO RER new station sites are detailed in Attachment 1.

  • Solving the Issue of Streetcars Blocking Traffic at King/Yonge Junbo Liang, University of Toronto
    Solving the Issue of Streetcars Blocking Traffic at King/Yonge Junbo Liang, University of Toronto 1.0 Introduction Observation revealed that at the intersection of King Street and Yonge Street, streetcars blocked traffic seriously during green lights. To solve the problem, this report provides and evaluates two solutions, namely, streetcar platforms and Transit Signal Priority System. By comparing and analyzing, the superior solution, Transit Signal Priority System, is recommended in this report. 2.0 Problem Statement This section identifies the current situation, experienced problem at the intersection, and defines the engineering problem and three criteria. 2.1 Current Situation, Experienced Problem and Engineering Problem The intersection of King Street at Yonge Street is located in the Downtown Toronto core, surrounded by numerous office buildings (Liang, 2016). Both streets are busy thoroughfares in Toronto with 4 lanes (2 lanes for each direction) at the intersection. Streetcar tracks located in the left lanes on both directions of King Street are currently in service (Liang, 2016). King/Yonge station, located at the intersection, connects the busiest subway and streetcar lines in Toronto (i.e. Yonge Subway Line, 504 King, 514 Cherry) (City of Toronto, 2014; Toronto Transit Commission, n.d.). Two of the five subway entrances are located on the northeast and southwest corners of the intersection next to existing streetcar stations (Toronto Transit Commission, n.d.). (See Appendix A for intersection layout.) A 1.5-hour site visit at 6PM Sept. 16th, 2016 revealed that the streetcars blocked traffic seriously at the intersection while loading passengers when the traffic signals in their heading direction were green (Liang, 2016).
