PIC#1 design options for feedback

Four options for the new Longfellow Drive streetscape have been created, all of which include required design features according to the city's Complete Streets approach. The new designs take into consideration the next 50 years of use, and follow the applicable regulations (Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), Ministry of the Environment, etc.), city policies, the Transportation Master Plan and other guiding documents.

Detailed information on each option, including potential tree impacts and retaining wall information, is available in the Public Information Centre presentation video. Project drawings for each option, and the PIC#1 Information Package can be found in the Project Library. The options can be summarized as:

1. Option 1: sidewalks on both sides, street 7 metres wide
2. Option 2: sidewalk on the north (even-numbered) side only, street 7 metres wide
3. Option 3: sidewalk on the south (odd-numbered) side only, street 7 metres wide
4. Option 4: sidewalk on the south (odd-numbered) side only, street 8 metres wide

The project team has received some questions regarding the project, the answers are provided in the FAQ section.

Please view the presentation video for details, and then provide comments on your preferred option through the Comments tab. We will be accepting feedback on the PIC #1 design options up to and including October 19, 2020.
