Region of Durham . Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority 5.0 Analysis 5.1 Purpose of the Draft Environmental Project Report As part of the T.P.A.P. for the New Track and Facilities Project, Metrolinx has circulated the Draft E.P.R. to Indigenous Communities, federal and provincial review agencies, municipalities and Conservation Authorities prior to the Notice of Commencement in order to obtain comments and feedback. The Draft E.P.R. contains information such as: . Project scope and project description; . Baseline environmental conditions; . Impact assessment including recommended mitigation measures and monitoring activities; . Operations and maintenance impacts; . Potential construction impacts along with construction management plans, traffic management plans and net environmental effects; . Overview of consultation process to date; and, . Commitments and work anticipated in future phases. 49 Report to Development Services Committee Item: DS-20-60 Meeting Date: June 8, 2020 Page 3 In terms of the project’s status, Metrolinx is currently concluding the Pre-Planning Phase. This will be followed by the issuance of a Notice of Commencement, finalization of the E.P.R. and the issuance of a Notice of Completion. Once the Notice of Completion is issued, the finalized E.P.R. will be made available for 30 days for review by the public (including property owners), Indigenous Communities, review agencies and other stakeholders. 5.2 Overview of the Draft Environmental Project Report The following is a high level overview of the relevant information found in the Draft E.P.R. concerning Metrolinx’s New Track and Facilities Project, including information related to the work being proposed within the limits of the City of Oshawa. Context The New Track and Facilities T.P.A.P. is part of the Metrolinx On-Corridor Program (“OnCorr”), which is the largest capital project within the GO Expansion Program for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (“G.T.H.A.”). Metrolinx is expanding its services as part of the GO Expansion Program in terms of both train frequency and availability. The purpose of the GO Expansion Program is to transform the GO Rail network into a comprehensive regional rapid transit network system that provides the expanded mobility the G.T.H.A. needs to accommodate growth and maintain a high quality of life and prosperous economy. Metrolinx’s long-term objective for the program is to provide 15-minute, two-way, all-day rail service. Metrolinx plans to quadruple service and double ridership through this program. Additionally, Metrolinx plans to provide electrified service along several rail corridors. The purpose of the New Track and Facilities T.P.A.P. is to assess the impact of the proposed infrastructure and provide appropriate mitigation measures. New infrastructure being proposed includes: . New tracks within existing Metrolinx rail rights-of-way; . Modifications or upgrades to existing tracks within existing Metrolinx rail rights-of-way; . Three (3) new layover/storage facilities; . New GO Station platforms; . Bridge expansion/modifications; and, . Electrification of a portion of the Richmond Hill GO Rail Corridor. Metrolinx has applied an accelerated 120-day timeline to the T.P.A.P. The following activities were carried out by Metrolinx during the Pre-Planning Phase of the T.P.A.P.: . Collection and documentation of baseline environmental conditions information; . Preparation of the Conceptual Design; . Initial communications and follow-up consultation efforts with Indigenous Communities; . Meetings with stakeholders; . Public Meeting Rounds 1 and 2; 50 Report to Development Services Committee Item: DS-20-60 Meeting Date: June 8, 2020 Page 4 . Pre-submission Circulation of Draft E.P.R.; . Consideration of stakeholder comments received and follow-up efforts; . Impact assessment studies and development of mitigation measures; and, . Preparation of the Draft E.P.R. Following completion of the Pre-Planning Phase, a Notice of Commencement will be issued to initiate the T.P.A.P. Phase, which will involve the following activities: . Issuance of the Notice of Commencement; . Public Consultation; . Meetings with stakeholders (e.g., Review Agencies, Municipalities, Indigenous communities, Utility companies); . Public Meeting Round 3; . Finalization of the E.P.R.; and, . Issuance of the Notice of Completion (within 120-days of Notice of Commencement). Once the Notice of Completion is issued, the finalized E.P.R. will be made available for 30 days for review by the public (including property owners), Indigenous Communities, review agencies and other stakeholders. Following the 30-day review period, the Minister has 35 days to issue one of following three notices: . Proceed with the Project in accordance with the E.P.R.; or . Proceed with the Project in accordance with the E.P.R. subject to conditions; or . Require the proponent to conduct further work and submit a revised E.P.R. Project Scope As part of the GO Expansion Program, Metrolinx has identified various infrastructure requirements to achieve service level targets across the network. The New Track and Facilities T.P.A.P. includes various infrastructure improvements and additions along the following corridors: . Lakeshore East; . Lakeshore West; . Kitchener; . Barrie; . Stouffville; and, . Richmond Hill. For the Lakeshore East corridor, which currently terminates at the existing Oshawa GO Station, the following is proposed: . 3.28 kilometers (2.04 mi.) of new track parallel to existing sections of the mainline; . 23 new switches; . A new platform at the existing Oshawa GO Station; and, . Expansion of the Thickson Road Bridge in Whitby. 51 Report to Development Services Committee Item: DS-20-60 Meeting Date: June 8, 2020 Page 5 No electrification or new layover/storage facilities are proposed along the Lakeshore East corridor through this project. Through the conceptual design process, the need for retaining walls in three locations along the Lakeshore East corridor was identified to reduce property encroachment. None of these retaining walls are planned to be located within Oshawa City limits. However, one retaining wall is planned in Whitby directly adjacent to the Oshawa-Whitby boundary, in order to limit the impact to properties municipally known as 2001 and 2099 Victoria Street East in Whitby. Metrolinx has advised that additional study regarding the new platform proposed at the existing Oshawa GO Station may be required during the detailed design stage, to review and confirm potential environmental impacts as a result of the new station platform as well as ancillary components such as drainage, pedestrian access, and tunnels. A study area buffer of approximately 30 metres (98 ft.) around the proposed infrastructure was applied during the collection of data to establish baseline conditions. The Stage 1 Archaeological Assessment study considered background reports of previous archaeological assessments conducted within 50 metres (164 ft.) of the proposed infrastructure as well as Ontario Archaeological Sites Database (O.A.S.D.) registered archaeological sites within one (1) kilometre (0.621 mi.) of the study area.

This is largely due to the businesses and entrepreneurs who create jobs and to the women and men who get up each morning to go to the plant, or the office, or another place of work to make Ontario a more prosperous province. At the same time, the government has made strategic investments to support growth. Enhanced education, skills and training, new infrastructure, a competitive business environment and support for startups and small businesses are helping create good jobs. On the surface, the numbers tell a positive story: Our economy has outperformed those of all G7 nations since 2014; Our unemployment rate, at 5.5 per cent, is the lowest it has been in almost 20 years; and Last year alone, 500 net new jobs were created, on average, each day in Ontario, and they were mostly full‐time.

  • (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.

  • Capital Projects Group Quarterly Report: June 2017
    MEMORANDUM To: Metrolinx Board of Directors From: Gerry Chaput Chief Capital Officer (Acting), Capital Projects Group Date: June 28, 2017 Re: Capital Projects Group Quarterly Report: June 2017 Recommendation That this report is received for information. Executive Summary The Capital Projects Group (CPG) is advancing a large and growing program, involving signature projects like the Regional Express Rail (RER) program, the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail Transit (LRT), Finch West LRT, Hurontario LRT, Hamilton LRT and Bus Rapid Transit. CPG has made progress in the advancement of RER enabling works using the Alternative Financing and Procurement (AFP) model with the assistance of Infrastructure Ontario (IO). Rapid Transit (RT) projects are also moving forward with continued construction on the Eglinton Crosstown LRT and the recent decision from the City of Hamilton Council to approve the Hamilton LRT project and submit an updated environmental assessment (EA) for a 3 kilometre extension from Queenston Circle to Eastgate. Work continues on the management of the RER program’s scope, schedule and budget by introducing new systems, controls and processes and transitioning the program documentation to centralized, system-based record keeping. These systems will be leveraged by all CPG programs and are expected to improve reporting, provide for timely and fact based decision making and better coordinate messaging with stakeholders. CPG is also pleased to report the following accomplishments this quarter: - the introduction of all-day GO Train Service to the Stouffville GO Line to help manage congestion and improve commutes in Scarborough and York Region; - the announcement of the three shortlisted teams to design, build, finance, operate and maintain the Hurontario Light Rail Transit (LRT) project; and - breaking ground on the Downtown Bus Terminal project which will be designed to LEED Platinum standards and connect to Union Station and to the PATH system.

  • Bowmanville Rail Service Extension Initial Business Case Update February 2020
    Bowmanville Rail Service Extension Initial Business Case Update February 2020 Disclaimer This Initial Business Case evaluates the case for implementing rail service to Bowmanville on the Lakeshore East corridor through various alignments and service patterns. The options presented are based on Metrolinx’s initial view of achievable alignments and service patterns on a shared rail corridor, and the infrastructure requirements to enable the service extension. Variations in the preferred alignment’s infrastructure scope and/or service pattern will be assessed through a Preliminary Design Business Case. This business case uses the future GO Expansion electrified service on the Lakeshore East corridor to Oshawa as the baseline for analysis. As this project advances through the business case lifecycle, future analyses will consider the effects of re-baselining the existing service levels. All figures within this Initial Business Case Update represent preliminary results. Forecasted costs, revenues and ridership figures are at a high level and will be subject to refinement as analysis of the Bowmanville Rail Extension proceeds to the Preliminary Design Business Case phase, and later analyses in the Business Cases lifecycle.
