PETITION for EGLINTON EAST LRT Build the Eglinton East LRT now! Read or edit the petition Title Ms Mr Mrs Miss Mx. Dr. First Name Last Name Email Dear Mayor Tory and Toronto councillors, The one-stop Scarborough subway has eaten up ALL of the funding for the Eglinton East LRT (EELRT) and it won’t even be ready until 2028. But if we started construction of the EELRT now, we could bring rapid transit and renewal to six Priority Neighbourhoods in Scarborough: Kennedy Park, Eglinton East, Scarborough Village, West Hill, Morningside and Highland Creek. Despite having a higher than average transit usage, these neighbourhoods have suffered from a rapid transit deficit for too long. It's high time council connected them to our existing rapid transit network now. The Eglinton East LRT could be built faster and less expensively. And it would serve more people than the one-stop subway extension. The Eglinton East LRT to Sheppard East would have at least eighteen-stops and would be within walking distance to 26,000 residents. If delivered, operated and maintained publicly, the EELRT would provide better access to jobs across Toronto and good public sector jobs in Scarborough. Please vote to fund and build the Eglinton East LRT now! **your signature** Yes, I accept your privacy policy Sign Now Posted on March 14, 2018 by admin.
