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.

These original works of art have now been put on display in ten Toronto Subway stations and will remain in place through the convention period. Each mural has on it the name of the sponsoring Rotary Club(s), the name of the Participating Partner and the Vibe Arts logo. Kennedy Station Kennedy Station Wilson Station Full size copies of the murals are also going to be on prominent display in the Host Organizing Committee Lounge at the House of Friendship.

PH13.1 REPORT FOR ACTION Housing Now – 50 Wilson Heights Boulevard – Zoning Amendment and Draft Plan of Subdivision – Final Report Date: January 28, 2020 To: Planning and Housing Committee From: Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning Ward 6 - York-Centre Planning Application Numbers: 19 114174 NNY 06 OZ and 19 232756 NNY 06 SB SUMMARY This report recommends approval of a City-initiated Amendment to Zoning By-law 569- 2013, as amended, for the City-owned property at 50 Wilson Heights Boulevard, as part of the Housing Now Initiative. The report also outlines the proposed Draft Plan of Subdivision for the site, preparing the site for the development of mixed-use development blocks, a new public street, new parkland and extension of the William R. Allen Road Pathway, a multi-use trail. The recommended Zoning By-law Amendment implements Site and Area Specific Policy 387 and will facilitate the development of approximately 1,500 new residential units on the site, including the delivery of approximately 500 affordable rental units. The proposed amendment also advances a range of City building objectives permitting 129,175 square metres of development, comprising a mix of residential (affordable and market rental and ownership) with commercial/retail uses, a child care facility and a community space for not- for-profit organizations. The development site will include one low-rise building (up to four storeys), two mid-rise buildings (up to 12 storeys) and four tall buildings (up to 16 storeys). Approximately 850 parking spaces will be provided in below-grade parking garages. Redevelopment of the site in accordance with the Draft Plan of Subdivision will result in a new public street connecting to Wilson Heights Boulevard as well as a new 3,049 square metre public park.

Toronto Transit Commission Report No. Subject
Form Revised: Februar y 2005 TORONTO TRANSIT COMMISSION REPORT NO. MEETING DATE : May 21, 2008 SUBJECT : SUBWAY ENTRANCE IDENTIFICATION ACTION ITEM: x INFORMATION ITEM: RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission: (a) Receive the final Summary Report on the TTC charrette produced by the Design Exchange; (b) Approve the revised standard pylon sign concept based on the outcome of the charrette, for trial installation, evaluation purposes and soliciting customer feedback; and (c) Endorse the use of a red accent to direct passengers to station entrances. FUNDING Funds for design standards, development of an enhanced silhouetted pylon sign and the TTC “red” accent for station entrances as well as customer research are available in the 2008 TTC Operating Budget. BACKGROUND At its meeting of February 27, 2007, the Commission requested staff to report on opportunities for beautifying the concrete above-ground subway entrances and improving the design of the station entrance signs. This report responds to that request. DISCUSSION On September 26, 2007, the Toronto Transit Commission, in partnership with the Design Exchange, hosted a design charrette to develop concepts related to subway station visibility. The charrette fostered community-based collaborative thinking in order to generate new concepts and ideas which would reinforce the TTC’s image and presence within the City. Participants invited to the event were stakeholders in the Toronto design community and included designers, architects, special interest groups, representatives of the City of Toronto and the Toronto Transit Commission. SUBWAY ENTRANCE IDENTIFICATION Page 2 The charrette was divided into three components. Initially a keynote address was given on design and identity by Dr.

Facts and Figures Trains on Theyonge/University/Spadina
3. SIGNALLING 3.1 INTRODUCTION Present Operation - Facts and Figures Trains on theYonge/University/Spadina (Y/U/S) route of the TTC subway network are presently scheduled at a constant time interval (headway) of 130 seconds apart during normal peak service periods. A short turn operation is instituted on the Spadina portion of the route, wherein alternate trains turnback at St. Glair West Station rather than proceeding to Wilson Station, resulting in scheduled headways between St. Clair West and Wilson of 260 seconds. Scheduled operation at 130 second headways corresponds to a service level of approximately 28 trains per hour. This in turn corresponds to a passenger carrying capacity of approximately 34,000 passengers per hour per direction (pphpd), based on the Commission's Vehicle Loading Standard of 1200 passengers per subway train. 1 A total of 45 trains are operated in service on the Y/U/S route during peak periods. Of this total, 20 trains are involved in the short turn operation (Finch Station to St. Clair West Station), while the remaining 25 trains are operated over the entire route, Finch Station to Wilson Station. The present Y/U/S fleet is composed of a mixture of three different types of rolling stock. The original red subway cars acquired in the 1950's for the first segment of the Toronto subway (Union to Eglinton) are still operated on the Y/U/S route. These cars, manufactured by the Gloucester Railway Carriage and Wagon Co. Ltd. (G-cars), have performed well for over 30 years, but are heavy and slow by modern standards, and are at the end of their design life.

Capacity Improvements on Bus and Subway Services
For Action Capacity Improvements on Bus and Subway Services Date: May 8, 2018 To: TTC Board From: Chief Customer Officer Summary On February 12, 2018 Mayor Tory and TTC Chair Colle announced a Ten-Point Action Plan to help add capacity across the network and reduce overcrowding. As a result of this plan, and previous requests regarding capacity improvements from the Mayor, Commissioners Mihevc and Fragedakis and Chair Colle between May 2017-February 2018, City Council approved funding of $3 million in added subsidy to address overcrowding on bus routes; and to take actions consistent with the Ten-Point Action Plan. In addition, the TTC utilized $2.0 million in 2018 base operating funding to further enhance reliability and capacity through a series of initiatives to address capacity and provide additional staffing to ensure redundancy to respond to emergencies. This report presents the following four capacity improvements that can be implemented in the short-term, starting in the fall of 2018, to address crowding on Line 1 and on busy bus routes: 1. Improve service reliability on Line 1 2. Relieve peak crowding on bus routes 3. Relieve off-peak crowding on bus routes 4. Implement new express bus services These capacity improvements will be made on Line 1 and 34 bus routes, and will improve the predictability and consistency of service, reduce wait times and crowding and enhance the transit network for customers. The capacity improvements will benefit up to 90 million customer trips per year and are estimated to attract approximately 848,000 new customer trips in 2019, and 1.1 million new customer trips per year when ridership fully matures in 2021.
