Eglinton Crosstown LRT – 4 Demand Forecasting Report
1 INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE
This report documents the ridership forecasts for the Eglinton Crosstown LRT. The report contains the travel demand forecasts for future Eglinton Crosstown LRT with future (2031) land use in the City of Toronto and surrounding regions. 2 DESCRIPTION OF FORECASTING WORK
The City/TTC’s current forecasting process was used to analyse the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, including two routing options for the LRT to Pearson International Airport. This process involved the following:
- updating the future (2031) land use in the study area - coding the LRT routing options in the City and TTC forecasting models - coding any changes in the feeder bus network - running the City’s GTA model to produce transit demand matrices - running the TTC’s MADITUC model using the derived transit demand matrices from
the GTA model - generating statistics and interpreting the results
The models are coded to represent the 2031 AM peak period transit network, and ridership forecasts are produced for the AM peak period for the year 2031.
3 LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS
Future year (2031) land use assumptions are from the Official Plans for the City of Toronto and surrounding regions.

Eglinton Crosstown LRT – 5 Demand Forecasting Report
The location and magnitude of development on the airport lands were obtained from the Greater Toronto Airport Authority’s “Airport Master Plan, 2008-2030” report and supplemented with information from GTAA Planning and Development. This information assisted in estimating the extent of development within the catchment area of the LRT routing options serving Pearson International Airport. 4 TRANSIT NETWORK ASSUMPTIONS
The Eglinton Crosstown LRT would run along Eglinton Avenue between Kennedy Station and Pearson International Airport. For preliminary forecasts, the alignment was assumed to follow Renforth Drive and Silver Dart Drive from Eglinton Avenue to connect to the airport. The Eglinton Crosstown LRT was coded to operate at a 4-minute frequency and at an average speed of 25kph when above ground and at 30kph along the underground section. The LRT was assumed to operate underground between Laird Drive and Weston Road. Along this section, the LRT was assumed to stop at the following stations: Laird, Bayview, Mt Pleasant, Yonge, Avenue Rd, Chaplin, Bathurst, Eglinton West Station, Dufferin, Caledonia, Keele, and Weston.
Exhibit 4-1: Transit City Plan
Eglinton Crosstown LRT – 6 Demand Forecasting Report
The preliminary model run included the Spadina Subway extension, all other Transit City LRT lines (see Exhibit 4-1) and the associated feeder bus changes, and a rough representation of the Mississauga BRT. For the preliminary run the Mississauga BRT was coded as a single route from Winston Churchill Blvd to Renforth Drive via Highway 403 and Eglinton Avenue. Subsequent Eglinton Crosstown LRT model runs included the Yonge Subway extension, connections between the Eglinton Crosstown LRT and the Bradford, Georgetown and Richmond Hill GO Rail lines. The single Mississauga BRT route was replaced with Mississauga and GO Bus routes running at high speed in the BRT corridor to Kipling Subway Station and Pearson International Airport. These routes are described in Tables B-2 and B-3 of Appendix B. The two Eglinton Crosstown LRT Airport routing options listed in Table 4-1 were modelled and analysed to determine the preferred alignment. Table 4-1: Description of Eglinton Crosstown LRT Airport Routing Options
Alignment Scenario
Routing Description
Renforth routing option
Operating from Kennedy Station to Pearson International Airport via Eglinton, Renforth, Silver Dart, and Airport Rd to Pearson International Airport. The transfer facility between BRT and LRT would be located near Renforth and Eglinton.
Martin Grove (Highway 27) routing option
Operating from Kennedy Station to Pearson International Airport via Eglinton, Highway 27, and Airport Rd to Pearson International Airport. The transfer facility between BRT and LRT is located just west of Martin Grove.

The above table shows the AM peak hour volume is about 5,000 to 5400. This peak hour volume occurs eastbound just west of Eglinton West station. Exhibit 5-1 shows AM peak hour link volumes along the entire line. Daily boardings are expected to be 170,000 with an annual ridership of about 52 million.

Exhibit 5-1: Eglinton Crosstown LRT AM Peak Hour Link Volumes
Forecasts for activity at major intersections along the route were also produced especially for underground stop locations. This information helps in sizing the station platforms. These station activity tables are shown in Appendix C. 5-2 Forecast (2031) Transit Trips to/from the Airport
A refinement of the forecast transit trips to/from the airport was undertaken to reflect the detailed present and future employment and passenger activity provided by the GTAA. This analysis resulted in a 2031 forecast of about 10,000 daily transit trips made by airport employees to/from the airport. The estimated number of daily transit trips made by air travellers is about 3,000 trips to/from the airport. The majority of these transit trips to/from the airport will be on the Eglinton Crosstown LRT. The remainder will be on the 192 Airport Rocket and one of the proposed Finch West LRT routing options.
Eglinton Crosstown LRT – 9 Demand Forecasting Report
5-3 Comparison of Routings Options to Pearson International Airport Future forecasts were generated for two routing options to the Pearson International Airport. One option was to route the Eglinton Crosstown along Renforth Drive while the other was along Martin Grove (Highway 27). Exhibits 5-2 and 5-3 show the two different routing options. Exhibit 5-2: Eglinton Crosstown LRT Routing Option via Renforth
Eglinton Crosstown LRT – 10 Demand Forecasting Report
Exhibit 5-3: Eglinton Crosstown LRT Routing Option via Martin Grove (Highway 27)
These two routing options to Pearson International Airport were compared by looking at the number of AM peak period westbound ‘offs’ between Martin Grove and just east of the airport terminal since the routing is almost identical elsewhere along the route. The comparison was limited to ‘offs’ since the land use along both corridors is mainly commercial/industrial. The transfer activity between the Mississauga BRT and the Eglinton Crosstown LRT was also compared. The results are shown in Table 5-2.
Table 5-2: Ridership Forecast (2031) Summary
Routing Option
AM Peak Period WB offs between Martin Grove and Airport
AM Peak Period transfers between BRT and LRT
Daily transfers between BRT and LRT
LRT via Renforth 1800 to 1900 BRT to LRT: 500 transfers LRT to BRT: 400 transfers
3600
LRT via Martin Grove
1800 to 1900 BRT to LRT: 450 transfers LRT to BRT: 350 transfers
3200
The results show there is no significant difference between the ridership levels of the two routing options. It needs to be noted that these ridership forecasts are based on the City of Toronto’s land use forecasts from their Flash Forward Official Plan report. Etobicoke Planning staff indicated that the area at Dixon Road and Highway 27 has the potential for even higher development, but the extent of this additional development was not available at the time of this forecast modelling work. Table 5-2 also shows the number of transfers between the BRT and LRT during the AM peak period is lower in the Martin Grove routing option. This is predominantly due to the lower
Eglinton Crosstown LRT – 11 Demand Forecasting Report
frequency of service of the Mississauga BRT routes connecting with the transfer facility just west of Martin Grove. It is important to remember, for the Martin Grove option, the services on the Mississauga BRT would be split to terminate at either the BRT-LRT transfer facility or Kipling subway station via the 427. In the Renforth option, all services on the Mississauga BRT would terminate at Kipling subway station. The ridership was adjusted using a travel time elasticity model in the Martin Grove option to account for less frequent BRT service connecting to the Eglinton Crosstown. The BRT service is less frequent in the Martin Grove option because the service has to be split into a branch to Kipling station and a branch to Martin Grove transfer facility. Stop activity for the Martin Grove option would likely increase if the land use at Dixon Road and Highway27 intensifies. The 2031 AM peak hour link volumes for the two Airport routings of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT and for the Mississauga BRT are shown in Appendix D.
Eglinton Crosstown LRT Connection with and the 191 Highway 27 Rocket
Forecasts were also produced to estimate the number of transfers between the Eglinton Crosstown LRT and the 191 Highway 27 Rocket. This is an important connection because it would enhance the north-south service in Etobicoke and create opportunities for denser development along the Highway 27 corridor. This analysis resulted in the following 2031 forecasts:
� Approximately 600 AM peak period transfers from the Eglinton Crosstown LRT to northbound on the 191 Highway 27 Rocket
� Approximately 500 AM peak period transfers from the southbound 191 Highway 27 Rocket to the Eglinton Crosstown
� The other movements have negligible number of transfers These forecasts assume the transfer location is located such that it will not cause a significant inconvenience to customers travelling through the transfer facility. At the time of writing the report, the details for this facility was not finalised. Note that these are estimates of the transfer volumes assuming this future network were in place today. In addition, the 191 Highway 27 Rocket was modelled with an average speed of about 28kph over the length of the route. This speed does not account for additional running time that would be required for the connection. Finally, this analysis only looks at possible transfers between the two routes. Further analysis would be needed to estimate the impact on the 191 Highway 27 Rocket through customers. These customers would be inconvenienced by the 191 Highway 27 Rocket diverting from Highway 27 to connect to the Eglinton Crosstown LRT. 6 SUMMARY
This report documents the ridership forecasts for the Eglinton Crosstown LRT operating between Kennedy subway station and Pearson International Airport. Location specific forecasts were also produced to assist in the designs of the stations. Finally, this forecast analysed two alignments to the airport. The forecasts indicate that routing the Eglinton Crosstown via Martin Grove is the preferred alignment.
