To date 31 of 69 stations across the network have been made accessible with the Easier Access Program. By 2025, TTC expects to have all stations accessible, including Woodbine. Funding for the program is included in TTC’s 5-year capital program which was approved by City Council on December 8, 2009. The Easier Access Project at Woodbine Station will include three new elevators, sliding doors, accessible fare gate and new signage. To minimize disruption in the community, this work will be coordinated with other required upgrades at the station including, repaving of the bus loop. Construction is expected to begin in late 2014 and be completed in 2017. 1.2 Consultation Process On December 2, 2013, the community was invited to the first open house where TTC presented the preliminary plans for the project, including the preliminary schedule, construction impacts and adjustment to bus operations (See Appendix-Presentation Panels) 1.3 Event Details Date: December 2, 2013 Venue: The Old Mill- Balmoral Room 21 Old Mill Road Time: 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm Attendees: 20 The event was promoted as follows: November 13, 2013 - 4100 Event Notices were distributed via Canada Post to an area bound by Dundas Ave W., Kingsway , Leland Ave and Mimico Creek October 18, 2013 – Event Notice posted on the TTC project website - www.ttc.ca November 28, 2013 - Colour ad placed in the south and central editions of the Etobicoke Guardian Event promoted through the councillor office Personal visits to property owners immediately adjacent to the site Meeting with the Chair of the Kingsway BIA sharing details of the project and encouraging their members to attend the event 1 Royal York Open House-Summary Report – December 2, 2013 2.0 Summary of all Questions and Comments The following is a high-level summary of the feedback received at the meeting. Comments were recorded by TTC staff who were available throughout the evening to answer questions from participants. 2.1 Temporary loss of Public Parking . Businesses were concerned about the temporary loss of 34 parking spots at the adjacent Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) lot. The parking spots will be restored following construction. o TTC advised that these spots will be used for the contractor’s staging as well as for the excavation. Two elevators between the concourse level and the platform are located immediately below the parking lot. Representatives from TPA were available to address questions. Residents who use the short term parking lot behind Shoppers Drugmart were pleased to learn that these spots would not be impacted by construction. Parking in this area is critical for business owners, particularly those west of Royal York Road where there are limited public spots. 2.2 Station Priorities for the Easier Access Program . What were the criteria for establishing priority stations for the Easier Access Program? o A number of factors were considered in consultation with TTC’s Advisory Committee on Accessible Transit (ACAT) including, ridership levels, proportion of ridership by seniors and disabled people, geographic location and transfers between transportation modes. Resident requested that TTC place Old Mill station, higher on the priority list, given the number of seniors in the area. 2.3 Operational Challenges during Construction . Will the sidewalk at the northwest corner of Royal York and Bloor be able to accommodate the onslaught of passengers when TTC installs the temporary bus stop? . Passengers who would normally get off at the station will be getting off at this location while the loop is closed for approximately 20 months. o TTC has reviewed this and determined that the sidewalk is sufficiently wide to accommodate transit riders. A temporary shelter is being explored at this location. Participants commented that, interlining the buses (running continuous service) along Royal York while the loop is being resurfaced was “ingenious”. Riders who travel through the station on the Royal York Bus will not be required to transfer at the station. Routes 48 and 73 north bound will be seamless, as will the 15 and 76 southbound. 2 Royal York Open House-Summary Report – December 2, 2013 . Request for four temporary bus shelters in front of the station. o TTC advised that there is limited space for bus shelter however anyone waiting for a bus at the station entrance can seek shelter within the station. o TTC will explore the possibility of a temporary shelter at the northwest corner of Royal York Road and Bloor Street to accommodate southbound-transit users. o Q. What are the work hours during construction? A. TTC indicated that o the contractor was bound by City of Toronto by-laws o Work is permitted between 7 am and 7pm during the week and on Saturdays from 9 am to 7 pm. 2.4 Design and Construction Q. Will TTC consider installing public washrooms at the station? A. Public washrooms are available at terminal stations. There are no plans to install washrooms at Royal York Station. Q. What are TTC’s plans to handle the extra volume of passengers when Humbertown Plaza and the buildings north of Humbertown are developed? Are there plans to expand the station to accommodate the added density? Plans for multi-story building are currently before the OMB. A. TTC has neither plans nor space to expand the station, other than widening the north driveway to provide additional bus layover space. The bus terminal and the station have sufficient capacity to absorb the added density from the Humbertown site. Q. Will there be disabled parking spots when the TPA lot is restored? A. TTC will work with TPA to add two disabled parking spots. The spots will be located as close as possible to the station entrance. Q. Can the acoustic fence at the north end of the TPA parking lot be taller to avoid people throwing debris onto private property? A. TTC will work with the neighbour and TPA to explore this further Q. Is there a public art component for this Station? A. Public art for this project is still under review 2.5 Additional Comments . Access to the drop-off lane on Royal York is hampered by taxis that park very close to this lane making it difficult to make a turn. Can taxis be set further back in order to 3 Royal York Open House-Summary Report – December 2, 2013 provide easier access to anyone wishing to use the drop off lane? Will this be rectified as part of the bus loop repaving? o The bus loop repaving will not impact this area but the concern has been relayed onto the City of Toronto Transportation Division for consideration, as this falls within their purview. 2.6 Non Project related Questions and Comments Comments: Some residents were concerned about maintenance around the parking lot and scattered debris. These issues were noted by TPA staff that were present. 3.0 Next Steps Construction is scheduled to begin in late 2014. TTC will continue to meet with residents and stakeholders to keep them abreast of developments on the project. A second public open house will be arranged in 2014, prior to construction to share more details on the schedule and staging of the project. 4 Royal York Open House-Summary Report – December 2, 2013 Appendix 1 Event

  • TTC) Christie Subway Station Through the Use of a Portion of 376 Clinton Street (Car Park 144)
    PA13.8 REPORT FOR ACTION Accommodation of Alternate Subway Access at Toronto Transit Commission’s (TTC) Christie Subway Station Through the Use of a Portion of 376 Clinton Street (Car Park 144) Date: January 20, 2020 To: Board of Directors, Toronto Parking Authority From: Acting President, Toronto Parking Authority Wards: Ward 11, University-Rosedale SUMMARY As part of its Easier Access Phase III Program, Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) is planning to construct two new elevators at Christie Subway Station (Christie Station) to provide additional exit access for customers (Project). Construction staging of the two elevators will require TTC to temporarily occupy the surface parking to the east of Christie Station that is owned and utilized by the tenants of 726 Bloor Street West (726 Bloor). In an effort to both mitigate the impacts of this displacement and accommodate construction staging requirements, TTC approached Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) and requested the use of a portion of Car Park 144 at 376 Clinton Street, estimated at approximately twenty-six (26) spaces (Rented Area) (refer to Attachment 1 - Site Location Map), for a term of two years, with the option to extend the term for one year (Construction Period). This report seeks approval from the Board of Directors of TPA to establish a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with TTC, or other form of agreement as may be acceptable to the City Solicitor, to permit the temporary loss of up to 26 of the 33 spaces at Car Park 144. Should the Board of Directors of TPA give its approval to establish TTC’s proposed temporary use of Car Park 144, seven (7) parking spaces would remain at this location.

    2053.6 For Action 2021 Accessibility Plan Status Update Date: May 12, 2021 To: TTC Board From: Chief Strategy and Customer Officer Summary This report describes the TTC’s progress towards achieving the objectives of the 2019-2023 TTC Multi-Year Accessibility Plan (“Accessibility Plan”). The Accessibility Plan identified 471 specific objectives to improve the accessibility of TTC services and facilities by 2023. Twenty-one of these objectives have been completed to date and another five are planned by year-end 2021. Significant Accessibility Plan accomplishments from 2019 to 2021 to date include: Operating all streetcar routes with accessible, low-floor vehicles; Upgrading seven subway stations with elevators, power-operated doors and modern wayfinding signage: Royal York, Wellesley, Chester, Dupont, Runnymede, Wilson and Bay; Beginning Easier Access construction at: Keele, Lansdowne, Sherbourne, Donlands and College stations; Installing upgraded platform edge tiles to reduce the gap between subway trains and platforms at: St George, Eglinton, St Clair, Finch, Queen and Dundas Stations; Revised entrance connection policy requirements to ensure that new third-party entrances best meet the needs of TTC customers; Trialling new tactile and braille wayfinding features; and Opening 16 Wheel-Trans Access Hubs across the city. Major planned accessibility initiatives by the end of 2021 include: • Completing Easier Access accessibility upgrades at three additional subway stations; • Continuing platform edge tile upgrades at up to 11 additional subway station platforms; and • Launching a new Wheel-Trans mobile app. 1 While the Accessibility Plan originally included 52 initiatives, five were removed from the Plan in 2020 due to the change in responsibility for Provincial Subway Projects.
