  • 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.

    EGLINTON CROSSTOWN Community Benefits and Liaison Plan Summary & Progress To-Date 6 201 DECEMBER Photo: Crosslinx Transit Solutions, 2016. Transit Crosslinx Photo: Photo: Crosslinx Transit Solutions, 2016. I. INTRODUCTION Metrolinx and Infrastructure Ontario selected Crosslinx Transit Solutions to design, build, finance and maintain the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail Transit (ECLRT) project, the first major transit expansion in 50 years. The provincial government’s $5.3 billion Crosstown investment is the single largest GTA transit investment ever. When it’s up and running, the Crosstown will deliver service that is reliable, comfortable and 60 percent faster than what is now available. What’s more, building the line is creating thousands of jobs, 2,500 at peak construction, and other significant economic benefits. The Crosstown is also unique because it is Ontario’s first large- scale public infrastructure project to contractually require the developer, CTS, to ensure that local communities and historically disadvantaged and equity seeking groups directly benefit from the province’s investment. Historically disadvantaged and equity seeking groups (H&E) refer to groups that have been historically excluded or marginalized from the processes and decisions that affect them. To meet this requirement, CTS is providing a range of employment, training and apprenticeship opportunities to these groups, as well as purchasing goods and services from local suppliers and social enterprises, whenever possible. 1 Photo: Crosslinx Transit Solutions, 2016. II. PROJECT AGREEMENT REQUIREMENTS Eglinton Crosstown Project Agreement Requirements The objective of the Community Benefits and Liaison Plan Community Benefits is to maximize training, employment and procurement The Project Agreement mandates a plan that includes: opportunities for Eglinton-area residents and businesses.

    Form Revised: February 2005 TORONTO TRANSIT COMMISSION REPORT NO. MEETING DATE: May 28, 2009 SUBJECT: FIRE VENTILATION UPGRADE SECOND EXIT PROGRAM AUTOMATIC ENTRANCE AT FIVE STATIONS ACTION ITEM RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission authorize staff to convert the conceptual layouts of second exits from a daily exit configuration to an automatic entrance configuration at five stations: College, Museum, Dundas, Dundas West and Wellesley, as outlined in this report. FUNDING Funds for the Second Exit Program are included in Program 3.9 – Buildings and Structures – Fire Ventilation Upgrade Project, as set out in pages 781-792, State of Good Repair/Safety Category of the TTC’s 2009-2013 Capital Program, which was approved by City Council on December 10, 2008. Reconfiguration of the second exits to automatic entrances will require additional funds based on specific site conditions. The increase in cost will be reflected in the 2010-2014 Capital Program Budget. BACKGROUND A Fire and Life Safety Assessment Study completed in 2002 identified fourteen high priority stations requiring an alternate means of egress from the station platform. Subsequently, the Second Exit Program was incorporated into the Fire Ventilation Upgrade Project to provide a second means of egress from station platforms at the following fourteen high priority stations: Broadview; Castle Frank; Pape; Dufferin; College; Museum; Wellesley; Dundas; Dundas West; Woodbine; Chester; Donlands; Greenwood; and Summerhill.
