As part of the revitalization of Toronto’s central waterfront,
Waterfront Toronto in partnership with the City of Toronto, is
undertaking an environmental assessment study of Queens Quay between
Lower Spadina Avenue and Lower Jarvis Street. This study is exploring
how to implement long standing City policy objectives including
revitalizing Queens Quay into a scenic waterfront drive and completing
the Martin Goodman Trail which today is absent through the central
waterfront.

Last week TCAT reported that the Toronto Cycling Advisory Committee's
recommendations regarding the Martin Goodman Trail bollards at the
Boulevard Club would go the Planning and Growth Management Committee
for approval in January. In fact, it is the Public Works and Infrastructure Committee who will review the recommendations at its meeting on January 9th.

Apologies for the short notice - this just came to TCAT's attention.
[In the future, if you know of an important public meeting please send
us a message as early as possible so that we can let all of TCAT's
supporters know about it in advance]

Earlier this year the City of Toronto embarked on a study to
develop a planning vision for the future development of Bloor Street
West, between Avenue Road and Bathurst Street.
