Published purpose

The City of Toronto, together with Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) are implementing flood risk mitigation measures to improve flood conveyance and reduce urban and riverine flooding experienced in the Rockcliffe-Smythe area, the most flood vulnerable area in TRCA¿s jurisdiction. These measures include channel widening, crossing upsizing, installation of floodwalls, and local / trunk sewer improvements to reduce flood risk for many properties within the area. The solutions proposed will substantially reduce flooding risk in the Rockcliffe-Smythe area. Jane St Bridge is one of a package of measures and is not amongst the listing of projects submitted for funding approval as this project was already approved for DMAF funding in the 2020 DMAF intake. Based on Hydraulic modelling completed, the Jane St project alone will not be effective in mitigating flood risk.
