Dear Committee Members,Join us for a Sneak Peek with dexd for an inside look at Toronto’s transit system. Toronto is a city in the making, and its public transit system is no exception. Being involved in the creation of a city’s infrastructure offers the opportunity to ask key questions: What defines quality public transit? Who can realistically be served by it? Which communities does the system serve?In this presentation, you’ll hear a brief history and context of Toronto’s public transit projects, followed by an exploration of the Ontario Line and its Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) component—part of one of the largest subway transit projects in North America.As always, this presentation will be followed with an open discussion. We are looking forward to having you!
Transportation and Infrastructure
The AIANY Transportation and Infrastructure Committee focuses on planning, architectural design, technical, and policy issues related to transportation and infrastructure, including systems and civic facilities to accommodate marine, aviation, and land-based transit, as well as energy, water and waste distribution networks. It is the mission of the committee to examine the architecture of, and to advocate for design quality in, transportation and infrastructure projects. We invite all committee members, and those interested in joining the committee, to join us at our monthly meetings on the 4th Thursday of the month at 6pm on Zoom unless noted. We are always looking for enthusiastic participants interested in contributing to the programs or assisting in other ways!
