On the agenda

As the city filed it

The transit map in Scarborough is changing. The Scarborough Subway Extension, the Bus Rapid Transit, GO expansion and the Eglinton East Light Rail Transit are going to transform Scarborough. But there's one piece missing - the Line 4 Sheppard East Subway Extension to the McCowan/Sheppard Station. The original Line 4 Sheppard Subway from Yonge to Don Mills was constructed in the 1990s and completed in 2002, with a future extension planned to go east toward McCowan Road.

Since then, Scarborough residents and businesses have been patiently waiting for the Line 4 extension east to McCowan Road to connect with the Scarborough Subway Extension. While the Province of Ontario has indicated that an extension of the Sheppard Subway east to McCowan Road is in their budget, there is no clear approach or timing to advance the planning for the extension of Line 4.

Staff recommended

Councillor Cynthia Lai, seconded by Councillor Nick Mantas, recommends that: 1. City Council request the Executive Director, Transit Expansion and the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning, to request the Province of Ontario and Metrolinx to provide the approach and timing to advance the planning for the Line 4 extension from Don Mills Station to the new McCowan/Sheppard Station on the Scarborough Subway Expansion.
