  • Rapid Transit in Toronto Levyrapidtransit.Ca TABLE of CONTENTS
    The Neptis Foundation has collaborated with Edward J. Levy to publish this history of rapid transit proposals for the City of Toronto. Given Neptis’s focus on regional issues, we have supported Levy’s work because it demon- strates clearly that regional rapid transit cannot function eff ectively without a well-designed network at the core of the region. Toronto does not yet have such a network, as you will discover through the maps and historical photographs in this interactive web-book. We hope the material will contribute to ongoing debates on the need to create such a network. This web-book would not been produced without the vital eff orts of Philippa Campsie and Brent Gilliard, who have worked with Mr. Levy over two years to organize, edit, and present the volumes of text and illustrations. 1 Rapid Transit in Toronto levyrapidtransit.ca TABLE OF CONTENTS 6 INTRODUCTION 7 About this Book 9 Edward J.

  • TTC 5-Year Service Plan & 10-Year Outlook Round 3 Online Survey Summary
    TTC 5-Year Service Plan & 10-Year Outlook Round 3 Online Survey Summary Survey Timeframe: October 2, 2019 – October 23, 2019 Total Respondents: 1,201 Overview The TTC hosted an online survey from October 2, 2019 through to October 23, 2019 to help inform development of the TTC’s 5-Year Service Plan & 10-Year Outlook. A total of 1,201 people participated in the survey. The survey was available on the TTC’s website and was promoted through the TTC’s social media networks, City Councillors, and networks of stakeholders. It was not designed or intended to ensure a statistically significant sample. The survey was part of the third and final round of public and stakeholder consultation activities conducted for the TTC’s 5-Year Service Plan & 10-Year Outlook, which will serve as a blueprint for continuous surface transit service improvements (i.e. bus and streetcar) to be delivered between 2020- 2024. Additional consultation activities in round three included two city-wide stakeholder meetings. Based on a combination of extensive technical work and public feedback received to date, the TTC has developed a Draft 5-Year Service Plan & 10-Year Outlook (Draft Plan). The purpose of the survey was to seek feedback on the key elements of the Draft Plan (i.e. Draft 20-Point Action Plan) to inform any final refinements before the Plan goes to the TTC Board for consideration by the end of this year. The survey featured questions related to eight categories, and this summary of responses is organized under the following categories: 1.

  • Developing Toronto's Transit Network Plan: Phase 1
    EX13.3 STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Developing Toronto's Transit Network Plan: Phase 1 Date: March 3, 2016 To: Executive Committee City Manager, Deputy City Manager, Cluster B and Chief Planner & From: Executive Director, City Planning Division Wards: All Reference Number: SUMMARY Significant investment has been made by all three orders of government to expand the transit network and address years of underinvestment in a critical infrastructure system for Toronto. The Toronto York-Spadina Subway Extension (TYSSE), Eglinton LRT (Mount Dennis to Kennedy) and Finch West LRT will be in service by 2021. In order to sustain recent progress, planning for new transit expansion projects must keep pace given the lead times to plan, design and build complex infrastructure. The purpose of this report is to recommend advancing planning and technical analysis on SmartTrack, Scarborough Subway Extension, Relief Line and Waterfront Transit, in order to set the stage for upcoming discussions on funding and financing new transit. In particular, this report recommends: • Finalizing the SmartTrack concept by narrowing the planning analysis to focus on key elements: an optimized Eglinton West LRT extension to Pearson Airport; and two SmartTrack/GO RER integration options that propose an urban service frequency at 11 existing GO RER stations with 4 to 8 new stations on the Kitchener GO and Stouffville/Lakeshore East GO Corridors; • Approving Pape to Downtown via Queen/Richmond as the preferred corridor for the Relief Line, and proceed to determine the preferred alignment and stations; • Completing the review of corridor options and related work for the Scarborough Subway Extension, and develop recommendations to integrate the proposed, optimized Eglinton East LRT into the University of Toronto Scarborough Campus secondary plan; and identify areas in need of an Avenue Study to facilitate intensification along the proposed LRT corridor.
