MOBILITY & TRANSPORTATION

A COMMUNITY OF CONNECTIONS

Lakeview Village is creating a highly connected network of pathways, routes and streets for flexible, effective transit and active transportation to support walking and cycling.

» A walkable community with AODA compliant sidewalks » Dedicated bike lanes, cyclist stations and bike sharing » Bus stops throughout Lakeview Village within walking distance » Car share pick-up and drop-off » Fine grain road network » Local and high order transit » Potential for Autonomous Shuttle Vehicle route » Reduced single-occupant vehicle usage » Pedestrian-priority streets for increased accessibility and safety

Lakeview Village’s new Lakefront Park will connect to nearby parks to the east – Lakefront Promenade Park, Douglas Kennedy Park and A.E. Crooks Park – and with the new Jim Tovey Lakeview Conservation Area to the west. Ogden Park, the central park within Lakeview Village, will act as a “gateway” to the waterfront for nearby neighbourhoods and residents.

FUTURE TRANSIT EXPANSION UNDERWAY

Lakeshore Connecting Communities Transportation Master Plan sets out a long-term vision for transit and corridor improvements along Lakeshore Road from 2020 to 2041 and will support future waterfront development.

FOR PLANNING PURPOSES

The plan includes transit expansions along Lakeshore Rd. and integrations with the Lakeview Village site, such as:

» Improved MiWay local service, with a new bus route travelling through Lakeview Village » Dedicated bus lanes and bigger, better buses arriving more often » A new Express Route, with stops at Lakeshore Promenade and Haig Blvd. » Two-way, dedicated cycling lanes » Improved pedestrian experience » Future rail service along Lakeshore Rd.
