Construction Staging Area Time Extension - TTC Easier Access Program - Greenwood Station (Stage 4)
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on both Strathmore Boulevard and Linnsmore Crescent, City Council approval of this report is required. As part of the Easier Access Project, Greenwood Station is being equipped with an at grade elevator attached to the existing station building, which will provide accessibility from the eastbound platform to street level, and a below grade elevator that will provide accessibility from the westbound platform to the concourse level. Construction will be undertaken in several phases, with varying degrees of sidewalk and lane closures taking place at the intersection of Strathmore Boulevard and Linnsmore Crescent. At the time of this report, TTC was applying for a permit extension of the construction staging for the Greenwood Easier Access project. This report deals with the matters related to Stage 4, scheduled to take place from September 20, 2023 to July 31, 2024. The remaining construction Stages will be discussed in future staff reports. Stage 4 will require the closure of Strathmore Boulevard in its entirety, including the north and south sidewalks, between the west side of Linnsmore Crescent and a point 27 metres west. As a result of the closures, there will be a temporary loss of three permit parking spaces on Strathmore Boulevard during Stage 4. The loss of parking spaces will not negatively impact the Permit Parking Area 7B. The 31 Greenwood buses will divert to Coxwell Station via Danforth Avenue and Coxwell Avenue in all service periods. TTC has requested a time extension for the construction staging areas on Strathmore Boulevard and Linnsmore Crescent, as the construction has been delayed due to labour strikes in 2022, existing site conditions and existing underground interference, and special weather conditions.
