With over 50 level crossings in York Region, they will continue to be a significant feature of the network. All level crossings on the GO network were assessed based on four criteria which included a number of components: Usage and Existing Conditions (60%) Social and Environmental (10%) • Exposure Index (traffic and rail • Visual improvement volumes) • Noise improvement • Geometry • Community connectivity • Accidents/Collisions • Adjacent roadways and queuing Cost (10%) Operations (20%) • Construction • GO Service improvements • Property • Special users (e.g. local transit, • Maintenance emergency services) • Service reliability • Station proximity LEVEL CROSSINGS: SORTING REVIEW Among high and medium priority locations, a tiered approach was adopted to inform prioritization and discussions with municipalities.

Metrolinx recognizes that with new infrastructure and construction comes impacts to the community that must be worked through with residents, businesses, and their elected officials. A regional Municipal and Community regional tour is currently underway that creates an annual schedule for getting to every municipal council and for providing a comprehensive summary for each municipality that details what the program will look like locally. We are developing a community charter which will commit the organization to building the regional transportation system in a way that is respectful of the communities it touches. This is in addition to the standard community relations support that we have traditionally provided on the ground on projects like Georgetown South and the Eglinton Crosstown. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: PROJECT CYCLE •Introduce the project to •Formal consultation period municipal partners and included in the Transit community and ask for Project Assessment Process initial feedback •Work with residents to establish why the project is needed and proposed approach Environmental Planning and Assessment Feasibility (only applies to new infrastructure ) Design and Construction Procurement •Focus on minimizing impact •Work with municipal to residents/businesses, partners/community to keeping the community inform the details of the informed and project, address design managing/being responsive concerns and build to issues as they arise. momentum. METROLINX COMMUNITY CHARTER . In Phase 1 we sought your input on the six themes driving the Community Charter. Informed by your Phase 1 comments, we launched Phase 2 where we invited your feedback on the six Community Charter promises we’ve developed. Feedback for Phase 2 closed on April 21, and will help to set regional promises and service standards. As our region grows our transit system needs to grow too. .

  • (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.

  • 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.
