New Mouth for the Don
The Don River is one of Toronto’s great assets and the centrepiece of major revitalization initiatives on the waterfront. Toronto and Region Conservation is conducting an Environmental Assessment for the Don Mouth Naturalization and Port Lands Flood Protection Project on behalf of Waterfront Toronto. This project is creating plans for a healthier, more naturalized river outlet to the lake, while at the same time, removing the risk of flooding to urban land to the east and south of the river.
New Lower Don Lands Community
Waterfront Toronto, the City of Toronto and the Toronto Transit Commission are conducting the Lower Don Lands Infrastructure Municipal Class EA Master Plan and the Keating Channel Precinct Plan. The objective of this plan is to create a vibrant, mixed use, sustainable community that embraces and respects a newly naturalized and flood-protected mouth of the Don River. The preferred roadway, transit and infrastructure designs will be presented for public comment on May 9.
