WELCOME Scarborough Subway Extension Information Session Please Sign In 1 Why we are here In 2017, the City of Toronto and the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) finalized an Environmental Project Report (EPR) for a one-stop Line 2 subway extension, as per Ontario Regulation 231/08 under the Environmental Assessment Act. In 2019, the Government of Ontario announced a three-stop Line 2 subway extension. Metrolinx is completing an EPR Addendum to assess impacts and propose mitigation measures for design changes since the 2017 EPR. The EPR Addendum will contain the following information: • Description of and rationale for planned changes • Assessment and evaluation of potential impacts the changes may have on the environment • Description of proposed mitigation measures to address potential impacts The EPR Addendum will be available for public review in April 2020. Have your say! We’re here tonight to: • Introduce the three-stop Scarborough Subway Extension • Provide background information and details on studies underway • Gather feedback from the community 2 Who is Metrolinx? Our Services • GO serves a population of more than seven million across more than 11,000 square kilometres stretching from Hamilton and Kitchener-Waterloo in the west to Newcastle and Peterborough in the east, and from Orangeville and Beaverton in the north to Niagara Falls in the south. • GO has been in operation since 1967, and now accommodates more than 81 million customer journeys a year. • PRESTO is the smart card fare payment system seamlessly connecting 11 transit agencies across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) and Ottawa. • PRESTO replaces the need for tickets, tokens, passes or cash. • PRESTO currently has over 2 million PRESTO cards in use. • UP Express connects the country's two busiest transportation hubs, Toronto Pearson International Airport and Union Station in downtown Toronto, offering a 25-minute journey from end to end, with trains departing every 15 minutes. 3 Who is Metrolinx?

    THE ONE TORONTO TRANSIT PLAN THE ONE TORONTO TRANSIT PLAN As Mayor, John Tory will make Toronto more liveable, affordable and functional. Public transit is at the heart of what it takes to improve Toronto in each of these areas. John Tory’s One Toronto Transit Plan is a collection of initiatives and public transit investments that will get our city moving in seven years, and provide relief to the Yonge-University-Spadina subway line. THE ONE TORONTO PLAN WILL: • Start construction of the Scarborough subway extension immediately. • Engage the City with the Government of Ontario’s and Metrolinx’s plans for Regional Express Rail (RER) – all-day, two-way surface subway service on existing GO track lines with new higher-speed vehicles . • Start with the SmartTrack line as the first RER project, providing 53 km of relief. The SmartTrack line will run from the Airport Corporate Centre in the west, down to Union Station and back up to Markham in the east, with 22 new station stops and four interchanges with the TTC rapid transit network. • Finance the City’s one third of the capital cost of the SmartTrack line without raising property taxes, using tax increment financing. • Provide new express bus services for a segment of travelers that can be moved much quicker if fewer stops are made en route. Examples, which have been discussed, include, Don Mills Road, Dufferin Street and Front Street/Liberty Village. THE ONE TORONTO TRANSIT PLAN BENEFITS ASSOCIATED WITH TORY’S ONE TORONTO TRANSIT RELIEF PLAN INCLUDE: • Bringing relief sooner, to more Torontonians, rather than just the downtown- concentrated proposals of other candidates.

  • Scarborough Centre on the Move

    Scarborough Centre on the Move

    PILLAR TWO SUPPORT TRANSIT & INNOVATIVE MOBILITY SOLUTIONS Scarborough Centre on the Move Transportation6 Master Plan 97 Pillar Two Support Transit & Innovative Mobility 6 Solutions The second study pillar is the promotion of transit and innovative mobility solutions to move more people through the transportation system efficiently. Transit-oriented development and support of transit investment in key areas is emphasized in planning and policy documents including provincial plans such as the Regional Transportation Plan (The Big Move) and the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, municipal plans such as the City of Toronto Official Plan and City of Toronto Complete Streets Guidelines (CSG), and local policies such as the Scarborough Centre Secondary Plan and McCowan Precinct plan. The benefits of transit are described in this chapter, along with details on the existing and proposed transit network and supporting strategies. This chapter includes mobility options such as local buses, subways, rapid transit (RT), autonomous vehicles, and other “smart” technologies that improve network efficiency. 6.1 Benefits Social Equity The regional transportation plan, the Big Move, envisions that 80% of residents will live within two kilometres of rapid transit, citing that access to frequent, fast, and affordable transit is crucial for social equity and cohesion. Transit provides access to society and the economy, particularly for those with low incomes who cannot afford to own and maintain a personal vehicle, as well as individuals unable to operate a vehicle, including the youth or elderly. Transit service helps integrate individuals into communities and regions to allow overall participation in employment opportunities and other activities.
