512 all stops to Scarlett Road

TTC plans to extend the St Clair Streetcar
TTC plans to extend the St Clair Streetcar

It’s not breaking news to say the TTC plans to extend the St Clair Streetcar to intersect the planed LRT on Jane Street. However recently Council and the TTC have been in contact about accelerating the process and are seeking funding in the 2009 budget for an EA.

 

Recent increases in residential and retail developments in the Stockyards have stressed buses in the area.  This combined with the a large shopping centre development on Gunns Road is quickly turning this stretch of old industrial land into a big-box destination scattered with medium density housing.

 

Let’s hope all goes well and we’re all stops to Scarlett in a few years.
