APPENDIX 5 February 2013
APPENDIX 5 February 2013 APPENDIX 5 APPENDIX 5-A Paper #5a Transit Service and Infrastructure Paper #5a TRANSIT SERVICE AND INFRASTRUCTURE This paper outlines public transit service within the Town of Oakville, identifies the role of public transit within the objectives of the Livable Oakville Plan and the North Oakville Secondary Plans, outlines the current transit initiatives and identifies future transit strategies and alternatives. This report provides an assessment of target transit modal share, the level of investment required to achieve these targets and the anticipated effectiveness of alternative transit investment strategies. This paper will provide strategic direction and recommendations for Oakville Transit, GO Transit and VIA Rail service, and identify opportunities to better integrate transit with other modes of transportation, such as walking and cycling, as well as providing for accessible services. 1.0 The Role of Transit in Oakville 1.1. Provincial Policy The Province of Ontario has provided direction to municipalities regarding growth and the relationship between growth and sustainable forms of travel including public transit. Transit is seen to play a key role in addressing the growth pressures faced by municipalities in the Greater Golden Horseshoe, including the Town of Oakville. In June 2006, the Province of Ontario released a Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe. The plan is a framework for implementing the Province’s vision for building stronger, prosperous communities by better managing growth in the region to 2031. The plan outlines strategies for managing growth with emphasis on reducing dependence on the automobile and “promotes transit, cycling and walking”. In addition, the plan establishes “urban growth centres” as locations for accommodating a significant share of population and employment growth.

New Station Initial Business Case Milton-Trafalgar Final October 2020
New Station Initial Business Case Milton-Trafalgar Final October 2020 New Station Initial Business Case Milton-Trafalgar Final October 2020 Contents Introduction 1 The Case for Change 4 Investment Option 12 Strategic Case 18 Economic Case 31 Financial Case 37 Deliverability and Operations Case 41 Business Case Summary 45 iv Executive Summary Introduction The Town of Milton in association with a landowner’s group (the Proponent) approached Metrolinx to assess the opportunity to develop a new GO rail station on the south side of the Milton Corridor, west of Trafalgar Road. This market-driven initiative assumes the proposed station would be planned and paid for by the private sector. Once built, the station would be transferred to Metrolinx who would own and operate it. The proposed station location is on undeveloped land, at the heart of both the Trafalgar Corridor and Agerton Employment Secondary Plan Areas studied by the Town of Milton in 2017. As such, the project offers the Town of Milton the opportunity to realize an attractive and vibrant transit-oriented community that has the potential to benefit the entire region. Option for Analysis This Initial Business Case (IBC) assesses a single option for the proposed station. The opening-day concept plan includes one new side platform to the north of the corridor, with protection for a future second platform to the south. The site includes 1,000 parking spots, a passenger pick-up/drop-off area (40 wait spaces, 10 load spaces), bicycle parking (128 covered spaces, 64 secured spaces) and a bus loop including 11 sawtooth bus bays.

(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.
