Cosburn – Transit-Oriented Community

Closed

Infrastructure Ontario (IO), with the Ministry of Infrastructure (MOI) is leading the transit-oriented communities program as it relates to the "New Subway Transit Plan for the GTA,” part of the government’s smart, forward-thinking plan to build new, sustainable transit. The transit-oriented communities (TOC) approach provides real opportunity to build vibrant, higher density, mixed-use communities that are connected to or within a short distance to transit stations . IO, on behalf of the province, is committed to working with the City of Toronto on plans to build a TOC at the future Cosburn Station . The Cosburn site consists of two sites which have been designated for TOC use. The sites will be developed in line with the stated objectives of the TOC program. The future growth potential for the Cosburn site is dependent on a planned transit station that will serve the surrounding neighbourhood with connections to bus and subway service along the Ontario Line. The proposed Cosburn site will add more housing and retail space for businesses. Community input is a key component of TOCs and is anticipated to take place in early 2024, following the city’s planning review.
