Proposed Jane Street Light Rail Transit (LRT)
 


This site was last updated December 2, 2009

The Study
The City of Toronto and the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) are examining ways to significantly improve transit service on Jane Street between Bloor Street West and Steeles Avenue West.

The Jane Street LRT is one component of the Transit City Light Rail Plan - a proposed network of seven new light rail lines that would provide comfortable, efficient rapid transit throughout Toronto.

Preliminary planning for the Jane Street LRT is underway in preparation for an Environmental Assessment of the project.

We are recommending that the bus service on Jane Street, from Bloor Street West to Steeles Avenue West be replaced with fully accessible, modern electrically-powered light rail vehicles operating in dedicated transit lanes, separated from traffic. This would make transit a fast, reliable, and comfortable way to travel on Jane Street and support the growth management objectives of the Official Plan.
