Transit City LRT Plan
As part of the Transit City plan, the TTC has proposed the construction of a light rail transit (LRT) line to connect Don Mills station to Sheppard East station on the proposed extension of the Scarborough RT line. This replaces previous plans to extend the Sheppard subway line to Scarborough centre station on the RT line.
The Transit City plan includes an LRT along Don Mills Road from Steeles Avenue through Don Mills station to Pape station on the Bloor-Danforth subway line. However, the transit line, along with other Transit City lines, was cancelled by Rob Ford when he became mayor on December 2010.

Famous quotes containing the words transit, city and/or plan:
“We only seem to learn from Life that Life doesn’t matter so much as it seemed to do—it’s not so burningly important, after all, what happens. We crawl, like blinking sea-creatures, out of the Ocean onto a spur of rock, we creep over the promontory bewildered and dazzled and hurting ourselves, then we drop in the ocean on the other side: and the little transit doesn’t matter so much.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“A city built upon mud;
A culture built upon profit;
Free speech nipped in the bud,
The minority always guilty.
Why should I want to go back
To you, Ireland, my Ireland?”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
“We saw the machinery where murderers are now executed. Seven have been executed. The plan is better than the old one. It is quietly done. Only a few, at the most about thirty or forty, can witness [an execution]. It excites nobody outside of the list permitted to attend. I think the time for capital punishment has passed. I would abolish it. But while it lasts this is the best mode.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
