Highway 407 Transitway Green Corridor - “The Golden River” - GTA Mega-Region’s Economic Generator 407 Transitway - “Levels the Playing Field” 407 Transitway Corridor Design Imperatives Ensure the 407 Transitway has instant ridership success day one The aim is to design and build the 407 Transitway to move people as efficient and timely as possible The goal would be to achieve a 80% modal split by creating great Transit Dependent Development Nodes Can’t get 407 Rail Transit without Density and Can’t have Density without Rail Transit (conundrum) Bury the hydro lines where it is economical around major transit nodes and reclaim the land for TOD transit dependent development (eliminate the blight - return the earth to be more environmentally friendly and humane ) Design, Build and Integrated, rail transit dependent complete communities (retail, office, residential, entertainment, recreation, institutional parks and the public realm) Transit Oriented Development Built Form at 10-12 times FSI - 700-1000 jobs or people per hectare Build concourses, atriums, convention centre, sports facilities and fieldhouses over the 407 Transitway to link both sides of the 407 when and where appropriate Redirect the population growth to the 407 Transitway’s integrated Transit Dependent Development Nodes along the 407 corridor Use the 407 Corridor Lands efficiently - create a great pubic realm No surface parking - underground and structured paid parking only Design 407 rail transitway for 10,000 - 100,000 transit riders per hour 407 Rail Transitway should never leave the 407’s Right-of-Way (ROW) Harness the Power of the Grid - create a versatile competitive network for the people living in the GTA Mega-Region - 8 Go-Transit Lines, 4 LTRs and 2 Subway Line plus 10-20 Bus Transit lines interfacing at station stops and will stimulate more north/south LRTs No station stops should be planned just for parking All station platforms are 200-300 metres long - to accommodate trainsets of 200 metres plus Create the Mega-Region’s 407 Rail Transitway spine (the 407 TransitwayNetwork should be the Metrolinx Board’s highest priority If a 53 Station 407 Transitway (milk-run) station design is needed, then design for 4 tracks instead of just two tracks Rail Transit Network should be design to be an synchronous network versus an asynchronous networks we currently have 407 Transitway E/A should be designed for high-speed Rail Transit (forget bus - obsolete business plan) Current Environment Assessment (E/A) Process is obsolete for Rail Transit - should be based on cost to build , operate and efficiency for both the transit rider and transit operations and then mitigate the environment GTA Economy Productivity: The 407 Rail Transitway should be designed and planned for a total of one hour trip across the GTA which includes travel and dwell time from Burlington (Freeman Interchange) to Oshawa (Harmony) roughly 140km The design and build for the 407 Rail Transitway should be grade separated and elevated tracks only Design, Build & Integrate the TOD (TDD) Development along the 407 Transitway Solarize the 407 Highway Corridor - 407 - “The Green 407 Corridor” Design the 407 Rail Transitway for speeds of 200 km per hour for local transit and 500 for high-speed from Montreal to Windsor Design speed of 130-150km per hour between 4km station stops - faster for express or longer distances Dwell time at all stations stops - 30 seconds - 407 Transitway is highest level of transit Design an grade-separated, elevated, straight as possible, electrified 407 Rail Transitway Eliminate Rupe Goldberg Interfaces - it seriously marginalizes 407 Transitway Investment - quite frankly it is an insult to the engineering profession Design the 407 Transitway Corridor to reduce the Carbon Footprint significantly Design, Build & Integrate as efficient and as tightly integrated as possible from the ground up an TDD & 407 Transitway Environment Should 62 be designed with automated train control Train Frequencies - 12 trains an hour in peak times and 6 Trains in off peak times (6 car trains initially expandable to 12 car trains) Financial and Economy Consideration 407 Transitway - Key Economy Generator - Helps Establishes a Worldwide Competitive GTA Mega-Region for jobs and investments Develop a Competitive P3 and ensuring it is win for all parties Create a Re wealth, Re-Development versus De wealth, Development Environment Create special development tools for the 407 TDD Transitway project Fares - basic & distance Work with MCAP to not tax underground parking and structure parking in the 407 Corridor but tax surface parking Automatic Collection method - RFID - eliminate cash Using TIF’s - should ensure it discourage sprawl Re Wealth the 407 Transitway Corridor spine and Environment - Up to $1 Trillion opportunity - after development it should be a great place to live and truly transit dependent development Involved the Pension Funds - P3 or Alternative Financing Method - Develop a comprehensive holistic financial development solution Encourage larger size apartment/condo units - maybe development charges are the same for all unit sizes /reduce property tax Investigate the possibility that the tracks in the evening 11pm - 5 pm could be used for freight The Premier become involved in the transformation of the 407 Transitway Corridor Premier instruct all the ministries, agencies, crown corporations, 407 ETR and Hydro One to work together for the good of the GTA meg-region economy and premier police this initiative it to ensure that it is happening on a on-going basis MTO, PIR, Finance, Metrolinx, Hydro One, 407ETR, Minister of Environment, should become part of the Can Do Team versus being the Can’t Do Team Places to Grow - 407 Transitway Corridor will contribute Up to $1 trillion dollars in economic development opportunity, home for approximately 2 million people, 840 -800,000 jobs, 125,000,000 square feet of office/commercial and 750,000- 1,000,000 transit trips a day when fully build-out Eliminate 15 million tons of CO2 emissions a year with a savings of $3,000,000,000 a year Help eliminate Gridlock with a savings of $10-15 billion dollars a year Eliminate the need for 10,500,000,000 gallons of fuel a year Eliminate 350,000,000,000 vehicle miles travelled a year in the GTA, saving 42,125,000,000 litres of fuel a year Reduces health care costs because less pollutants going into the atmosphere TDD - 1,000,000 cars off the road - 1,000,000 people will be taking transit on a daily basis over time - as 407 corridor get build-out York Region 407 Transitway Hubs - Approximately 4km spacing Municipality YR Anchor & Gateway Hubs Hydro Costs Acres Units Pop Office sq ft.
