Appendix 5 Station Descriptions And
Appendix 5 Station Descriptions and Technical Overview Stage 2 light rail transit (LRT) stations will follow the same standards, design principles, and connectivity and mobility requirements as Stage 1 Confederation Line. Proponent Teams were instructed, through the guidelines outlined in the Project Agreement (PA), to design stations that will integrate with Stage 1, which include customer facilities, accessibility features, and the ability to support the City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP) goals for public transit and ridership growth. The station features planned for the Stage 2 LRT Project will be designed and built on these performance standards which include: Barrier-free path of travel to entrances of stations; Accessible fare gates at each entrance, providing easy access for customers using mobility devices or service animals; Tactile wayfinding tiles will trace the accessible route through the fare gates, to elevators, platforms and exits; Transecure waiting areas on the train platform will include accessible benches and tactile/Braille signs indicating the direction of service; Tactile warning strips and inter-car barriers to keep everyone safely away from the platform edge; Audio announcements and visual displays for waiting passengers will precede each train’s arrival on the platform and will describe the direction of travel; Service alerts will be shown visually on the passenger information display monitors and announced audibly on the public-address system; All wayfinding and safety signage will be provided following the applicable accessibility standards (including type size, tactile signage, and appropriate colour contrast); Clear, open sight lines and pedestrian design that make wayfinding simple and intuitive; and, Cycling facilities at all stations including shelter for 80 per cent of the provided spaces, with additional space protected to ensure cycling facilities can be doubled and integrated into the station’s footprint. -

Confederation Line West the Construction of Facilities Required To
Appendix 7 Mobility during construction – Confederation Line West The construction of facilities required to operate a Transitway detour along Scott Street between Tunney’s Pasture Station and Dominion Station will require limited lane reductions, while maintaining at least one lane per direction. This Transitway detour will result in buses operating in general traffic along Scott Street between Churchill Avenue and Tunney’s Pasture Station, although an exclusive eastbound transit lane will be provided between Lanark Avenue and Island Park Drive. To limit the impact of the transit detour on nearby residents, the detour is not permitted to enter into service prior to December 2021, and will include enhancements to pedestrian and cycling safety at four signalized intersections. Additionally, the MUP on the north side of Scott Street will be increased in width to four metres. During the Transitway detour, the Westboro Station platforms will be relocated to Scott Street. West of Churchill Avenue, Scott Street will be extended as a transit-only roadway to Dominion Station. This transit-only roadway will be on the south side of the existing Transitway until a point just east of Roosevelt Avenue, at which point it will cross to the north side of the existing Transitway (south of Workman Avenue) until it meets the Sir John A MacDonald Parkway in the vicinity of existing Dominion Station. The Roosevelt Avenue pedestrian bridge will be removed prior to the beginning of this detour phase, and a temporary bridge for the transit-only roadway will be installed. This temporary bridge will be removed following the removal of the Transitway detours and the pedestrian bridge will be reinstated in its original alignment. -
