ULI Toronto Transit Oriented Development
With the announced $28 billion regional transit plan, the provincial government is seeking to capture a significant amount of the land value created by its massive infrastructure investments. It’s a new approach to funding public infrastructure and delivering transit oriented development - promising to play a significant role in project planning and implementation timelines with nearly two-thirds of the plan’s funding to be sourced by other levels of government and benefiting land owners. What does success look like across the region and what are the implications for public agencies and regional municipalities?
