The Crosstown LRT

The proposed Crosstown LRT line is the only TransitCity route that will cross into every single borough of Toronto. It will replace the 32 Eglinton West & the 34 Eglinton East, providing transit users with an effective way of getting across town without heading through Downtown. The route would begin at Pearson International Airport with a connection to the proposed Mississauga Transitway at Renforth Drive. It will cross over into the city of Toronto as it heads east of the 427, merging with Eglinton Avenue West. As the line continues east it will cross over the proposed Jane LRT where an effective transfer will be constructed. When the line passes East of Keele Street it will head underground where it will connect to the Eglinton West and Eglinton subway stations. According to Adam Giambrone, the tunnels used on this portion of the line will be easily upgradable to heavy rail. The line will return to the surface at Laird Road where it will soon cross over the proposed Don Mills LRT. Soon after, it will head under street level to connect with Kennedy Station, offering effective transfers to the Bloor-Danforth subway line, the Scarborough RT, and the propsed Malvern LRT.
