City Planning Division and the TTC are planning the Relief Line – a new subway line that would connect downtown to the Bloor-Danforth Subway east of the Don River. This new subway line would address crowding and congestion on the Yonge Subway, at Yonge-Bloor Station, and on the surface transit network to the east of downtown.

The area where the new subway line may be constructed is shown in the attached figure.

The project website, http://reliefline.ca, has now been updated with lots of information about the project, including

• *  how the Relief Line could address the transit crowding challenges that we face
• *  the potential station areas
• *  the draft evaluation criteria that will be used to select the route and station locations
