Edited: February 16, 2020. The open houses have been completed. However, the consultation process continues! All Leaside residents are urged to get engaged.
The Ontario Line is the proposed rapid transit line from the Ontario Science Centre to Ontario Place. The proposed alignment would run close to Leaside through Thorncliffe Park. All Leaside residents are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the proposal and to attend one of the public open houses listed in the message from Metrolinx below.
Ontario Line Public Open Houses
Dear Stakeholders,
On June 4, 2019, the Ontario Government passed the “Getting Ontario Moving Act,” which assigns responsibility for planning some rapid transit in Toronto to the Province of Ontario. As a result, the Relief Line project has now been replaced by the Ontario Line project. With this change, Metrolinx will lead a renewed consultation and exploration process, which will also include additional Environmental Assessment work. As this new process gets underway, we hope that you will continue to participate in engagement opportunities.
Metrolinx is hosting four public open houses to introduce the Ontario Line later this month. Fifteen potential stations are proposed between Ontario Place and Ontario Science Centre, with links to GO Transit, the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, and TTC Lines 1 and 2. The objective of the information sessions will be to provide the public with an overview of the project, the process, and information on future engagement opportunities.
The information sessions will be hosted in the last two weeks of January. The same information will be available at each event. Details of the sessions are below, and included in the flyer.
