Over the past 6 months, our faculty and students have had the great pleasure of working with our project partners: The City of Toronto, Toronto Community Foundation, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Cannon Design, Greater Toronto Airport Authority (GTAA), Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, Metrolinx and Arup. We have also had the pleasure of working in collaboration with major institutions in Chicago (Illinois Institute of Technology), and New York City (Parsons). These partnerships have contributed to this years project, which is focused on developing a definition of Gateway Cities and creating a regional atlas that will help to inform decision making at the mega- regional scale. This complex initiative has been driven by our many partners who are aiming to gain a better understanding of the regional systems that drive social, economic and cultural development at scales that cross municipal and national boundaries. This charrette will build on the year-long project focus, while exploring how to create responsive design proposals that complement the regional framework. As we look toward the future, regional development is crucial to our global competitiveness and sustainability in the long-term. Developing communities and industries that respond to changing demographic, environmental and economic conditions can build resilience as we plan for future generations. We look forward to seeing what new ideas, conversations and friendships emerge from this international charrette. It’s time to get busy! Luigi Ferrara OAA, MRAIC, Hon.

  • Toronto Transit Commission Report No
    Revised: March/13 TORONTO TRANSIT COMMISSION REPORT NO. MEETING DATE: March 26, 2014 SUBJECT: TTC COMMUNITY RELATIONS ANNUAL REPORT INFORMATION ITEM RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Board receive this report for information. FUNDING The recommendation of this report does not have any financial impact. BACKGROUND At its meeting of February 25, 2013, the Board adopted a Construction Projects Community Relations Management Plan and TTC Good Neighbour Policy for Construction Projects. Attached is the annual Community Relations report for 2013. DISCUSSION Community Relations efforts in 2013 focused on pro-active outreach for major capital projects including: Leslie Barns, New Second Exits Expert Advisory Panel, Coxwell Station Easier Access, Woodbine Station Easier Access, Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension, Pape Station Modernization, Dufferin Station Modernization, Ossington Station Easier Access, and Lawrence Station Fire Vents and other projects that are in the planning phase. The community outreach on major TTC construction projects has ensured that community questions, concerns, and recommendations are clearly identified, evaluated and responded to throughout planning, design and construction. The Community Relations team is a bridge between communities, TTC construction staff and contractors. By building early understanding and trust, and working diligently to incorporate community feedback and resolve concerns, the TTC can build projects more effectively with community support. This is especially important given that major projects with long term benefits may cause major inconvenience to our neighbours and customers during construction.

  • Metrolinx Accessibility Status Report 2016
    Acknowledgements We would like to acknowledge the efforts of former Metrolinx Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC) members Mr. Sean Henry and Mr. Brian Moore, both of whom stepped down from the AAC in 2016. They provided valuable input into our accessibility planning efforts. We would like to welcome Mr. Gordon Ryall and Ms. Heather Willis, who both joined the Metrolinx AAC in 2015. Lastly, we would like to thank all of the Metrolinx AAC members for the important work they do as volunteers to improve the accessibility of our services. Metrolinx Accessibility Status Report: 2016 1. Introduction The 2016 Metrolinx Accessibility Status Report provides an annual update of the Metrolinx Multi-Year Accessibility Plan published in December 2012, as well as the 2015 Metrolinx Accessibility Status Report. Metrolinx, a Crown agency of the Province of Ontario under the responsibility of the Ministry of Transportation, has three operating divisions: GO Transit, PRESTO and Union Pearson Express. This Status Report, in conjunction with the December 2012 Metrolinx Multi-Year Accessibility Plan, fulfills Metrolinx’s legal obligations for 2016 under the Ontarians with Disabilities Act (ODA), to publish an annual accessibility plan; and also under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), to publish an annual status report on its multi-year plan. The December 2012 Metrolinx Multi-Year Accessibility Plan and other accessibility planning documents can be referenced on the Metrolinx website at the following link: www.metrolinx.com/en/aboutus/accessibility/default.aspx. In accordance with the AODA, it must be updated every five years. Metrolinx, including its operating divisions, remains committed to proceeding with plans to ensure AODA compliance.

  • GO Transit Fare Increase
    Memorandum To: Metrolinx Board of Directors From: Greg Percy President, GO Transit Date: December 3, 2015 Re: Proposed GO Transit Fare Increase Executive Summary As part of the annual business plan process, an extensive review is undertaken of both operating expenses as well as other revenue opportunities to determine if a fare increase is warranted. Effective February 1, 2016, a GO Transit fare increase of approximately 5% is being recommended to meet the needs of our growing customer base and to ensure long term financial sustainability for the corporation. Staff are proposing to continue with a tiered fare increase approach, based on a four-tier system that exemplifies the fare-by-distance approach. Fares for short-distance trips would be frozen under this proposal. Base adult single fares would be increased as follows: Base Adult Single Fares Current Fare Increase Range $5.30 - $5.69 $0.00 $5.70 - $6.50 $0.40 $6.51 - $8.25 $0.50 > $8.25 $0.60 The discounts for the initial Adult PRESTO card fare would be increased from 10% to 11.15%. The discount on the initial PRESTO card fare for a student would increase from 17.25% to 18.40% while the discount on a senior fare would increase from 51.50% to 52.65%. The net result would be an approximate 5% effective rate of increase for the majority of our customers who use the PRESTO card. Additionally, PRESTO users will now pay less for short-distance trips due to the fact that the fares for these trips are not increasing while the initial discount for using PRESTO is increasing.
