Transit Notice March 6, 2017 501/301 Queen service changes Dates: May 7 to September 2, 2017 Content/timeline accurate at time of printing Work description and purpose From May 7 to September 2, buses will replace streetcars on the entire length of the 501/301 Queen route; between Long Branch Loop to Neville Park Loop. A number of planned construction projects along the Queen streetcar route make it difficult to provide continuous uninterrupted streetcar service during the work. A full bus replacement will maintain service along the route, providing the most efficient travel during construction, and will help avoid major diversions that streetcars would otherwise be required to use. The projects on the 501/301 Queen route from May 7 to September 2 include: • City/TTC track work on the Lake Shore and track and bridge work on The Queensway – January 2017 to end of year • City streetscaping/sidewalk improvement work between Bathurst and Spadina – Spring 2017 • Eaton Centre/Hudson’s Bay pedestrian bridge re-construction – May to September 2017 • City watermain work at Queen/Coxwell – prior to Labour Day 2017 (this is followed by TTC track reconstruction in the fall) • Various short-term TTC track/concrete repairs on Queen Street o i.e. Queen/James, Queen/Simcoe, Queen/Bay, etc. TTC service changes (May 7 to September 2, 2017) 501/301 Queen buses will operate between Neville Park Loop and Long Branch Loop. On September 3, streetcars will return on the Queen route east of Roncesvalles Avenue. Buses will continue operating west of Roncesvalles Avenue due to ongoing construction along The Queensway/Humber Loop/Lake Shore. In the fall of 2017 Two track reconstruction projects will take place on Queen Street that will require streetcar diversions: • Queen and Coxwell intersection – September to October 2017 • Queen and McCaul – October to November 2017 Due to other track projects currently underway or already scheduled and coordinated for the summer, the Queen/Coxwell and Queen/McCaul track work cannot be completed during the summer months when the entire 501/301 Queen route is converted to buses. Notices with additional details will be made available in advance of projects affecting TTC customers and local communities. Thank you for your patience as we work to improve transit in Toronto.

Official Plan Review: Transportation Policies
January 2020 PH13.3 Attachment 6 Five-Year Official Plan Review TRANSPORTATION POLICIES PHASE 2 -PUBLIC & STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION SUMMARY REPORT DILLON CONSULTING LIMITED i Phase 2 Executive Summary In the fall of 2018, the City of Toronto (the City) retained Dillon Consulting Limited (Dillon) to design and deliver a consultation program to garner stakeholder and public feedback on draft amendments to the Official Plan (OP) Transportation Policies. The review and revision of existing transportation policies is part of the City’s Five-Year Official Plan Review process, and as such, the consultation program was designed to solicit feedback city-wide. The Consultation program was broken into two phases and this report summarizes the engagement for Phase 2. The consultation program was focused on four transportation policy topics: Transit, Cycling, Automated Vehicles and Shared Mobility, and Street Related Map and Schedules. Phase 2 Consultation began with a stakeholder workshop in April, 2019. Four public meetings (one in each district: North York, Etobicoke, Scarborough and Downtown) occurred in May, 2019. An additional stakeholder meeting was held in May, 2019 in an effort to reach out to advocates, organizations and academic researchers promoting accessibility and safety for vulnerable road and transit users, including the elderly, women, children, and people living with disabilities. A statutory public open house was held on November 26, 2019. The stakeholder and public meetings followed the same general format: a presentation of the transportation policies under review, a summary of What We Heard from the Phase 1 consultation and proposed key policy changes. This was combined with breakout discussion tables to examine each of the four policy topics under review in more detail.

There are 140 pas senger stops and 38 traffic signals along the route, and three interrupt the streetcars' progress along a route. Finally, a vari separately scheduled streetcar services operate over portions ety of random delays related to queueing or pedestrian inter of the route. The model is designed to analyze the Impact of a ference can occur during mixed-street traffic operation.

Humber Bay Transit Hub Proposal
1 Humber Bay Transit Hub Proposal for Southern Etobicoke, City of Toronto February 2014 rev. “There are intelligent, practical, and cost-effective ways to integrate multiple modes of public transit for moving people efficiently in the Greater Toronto Area” “When public servants no longer effectively perform their duties to serve the public interest – the public must take action.” Paul Chomik, P.Eng. The intent of this public transportation initiative is to facilitate a rational overall level of upgrading to public transit in southern Etobicoke and Mississauga to Downtown Toronto, while providing for increased flexibility and route choices for transit riders, including a seamless integrated public transit service across municipal boundaries with reduced need for transfers along the base route. This area transit plan proposes intelligent integration and future growth potential for the public transportation network in the western Greater Toronto Area. Copyright: Paul Chomik 2008 – 2014 All rights reserved 2 Overview The major components of this new transit proposal include: 1) Retaining and enhancing the existing Humber Loop facility as an integrated multi- modal area hub for public transit. 2) Introducing a new LRT west from Humber Loop along The Queensway to Sherway Gardens - which is a major transportation corridor that has traditionally been significantly deficient in public transit. 3) Extension of the LRT west into the City of Mississauga, Peel Region, along The Queensway and the existing Hydro right-of-way to Hurontario Street, and beyond (in the future). 4) Re-introduction of streetcar service through Sunnyside to the Canadian National Exhibition grounds, which has been deficient in public transit service since the late 1950s when construction of the F.G.
