What if the Scarborough Rapid Transit (SRT) was transformed into a vibrant and iconic community space?

What would you build for Scarborough with 180 million dollars?

Transit infrastructure has been reimagined in cities around the world. From New York and Atlanta to Mexico City and Detroit, former transportation corridors have been transformed into parks, trails and public spaces that reconnect communities and create new possibilities for urban life.

Scarborough has that same opportunity. The City of Toronto is currently considering the future use of the Scarborough RT corridor, with demolition estimated to cost more than $180 million. Instead of removing this space, lets reimagine the transformation into a vibrant public space, a linear park where people can walk, gather, enjoy nature and connect to neighbourhoods and trails.

Reimagining the SRT Coalition

The Reimagining the SRT Coalition is a growing group of Scarborough community organizations and local leaders working to turn the existing SRT corridor into a long term community asset. Rather than demolition, which was once estimated at a cost of 180 million dollars, the Coalition is exploring repurposing options to advance a community centered vision that can serve Scarborough for generations.
