The limits of the study area are 300m back for each leg of the intersection. The intersection is located on the boundary between The Town of Caledon, Township of King, York Region and the Region of Peel. As a part of Albion Vaughan Road – King Street intersection improvements, technical studies have been conducted by CIMA. The consultant has submitted the technical reports in 2017 and due to staff changes; I’m not sure whether the attached technical reports have been circulated to stakeholders during the process. As far I know the reports have been reviewed by TRCA and we’re working on to address their comments. As we plan to complete the EA project early next year (Q1-2019) and moving ahead with the plan, I would like to ensure that the stakeholders are engaged to review the technical reports and their inputs are properly embraced. The technical reports can be accessed via the following link. Please open the FTP link by using Google Chrome and open the ‘York Region” folder and “Albion- Vaughan Rd and King Street Intersection EA” sub-folder to view and download technical reports. https://efts.peelregion.ca ID: tmahmood Pw: tmahmood I would appreciate if you kindly provide your feedback on these attached reports by no later than Tuesday, January 8th, 2019.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements
AlbionVaughan Road Bridge
King Road Bridge
Caledon King Townline Bridge
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Freeboard clearance and relief flow depth
SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullProperties within the study area are not considered to be of cultural heritage value or interestndash No further cultural heritage assessment of study is required
bullA Preliminary (Stage 1) and detailed (Stage 2) archaeology assessment was conductedndash No archaeological resources were identified

bullAlthough Species at Risk have been previously recorded in natural areas adjacent to the study area no Species at Risk or locally rare species were found in the immediate study area during field investigations
bullTwo watercourses designated as fish habitat are within the study areandashCold CreekndashHumber River
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bull44 water well records were identified within 500m of the study area but no municipal or public wells were identified
bullA private well survey was completed for the study areas and 10 domestic well residences were identified
bullA meander belt assessment indicates that any necessary modifications andor reconstruction of the three structures should be conducted outside of the watercourse meander belt width to the extent possible
Albion Vaughan Road Crossing
EXISTING CONDITIONS
HEALTH RELATED ndash NOISE AND AIR QUALITYbullCurrently noise exceeds the Regional
standard noise level limit However since noise barrier walls are only installed to minimize the noise perceived at outside living spaces (ie backyards) this type of mitigation measure is not recommended in the study area
bullCurrent concentration of common air contaminants generated by internal combustion engine vehicles such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides are below current standards and guidelines
bullOnly concentration of hydrocarbons (ie benzene) was found over applicable standards

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements
AlbionVaughan Road Bridge
King Road Bridge
Caledon King Townline Bridge
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Freeboard clearance and relief flow depth
SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullProperties within the study area are not considered to be of cultural heritage value or interestndash No further cultural heritage assessment of study is required
bullA Preliminary (Stage 1) and detailed (Stage 2) archaeology assessment was conductedndash No archaeological resources were identified

bullAlthough Species at Risk have been previously recorded in natural areas adjacent to the study area no Species at Risk or locally rare species were found in the immediate study area during field investigations
bullTwo watercourses designated as fish habitat are within the study areandashCold CreekndashHumber River
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bull44 water well records were identified within 500m of the study area but no municipal or public wells were identified
bullA private well survey was completed for the study areas and 10 domestic well residences were identified
bullA meander belt assessment indicates that any necessary modifications andor reconstruction of the three structures should be conducted outside of the watercourse meander belt width to the extent possible

December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

We are here
PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements
AlbionVaughan Road Bridge
King Road Bridge
Caledon King Townline Bridge
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Freeboard clearance and relief flow depth
SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullProperties within the study area are not considered to be of cultural heritage value or interestndash No further cultural heritage assessment of study is required
bullA Preliminary (Stage 1) and detailed (Stage 2) archaeology assessment was conductedndash No archaeological resources were identified

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

middot Please let me know what your schedule is for filing the EA and whether you can share thepreliminary design with York Region in advance of filing
o Filing of the Project Report is expected to be completed by AugustSeptember 2018An electronic copy of the preliminary design for the interim and the final preferredalternative will be provided by the Region of Peel in advance
middot What is the limit of Peel Regionrsquos jurisdiction related to the east leg of the intersectiono The east limits of the proposed improvements for the interim preferred alternative
(northbound right turn lane) is the bridge structure located east of the intersection(King Road Bridge)
middot Does the project extends into York Regionrsquos jurisdiction on King Road If so will you need aletter from York Region to include in the project file as it relates to the project within Yorkrsquosjurisdiction
o The limits of the final preferred design (widening the intersection to 4 lanes) mayextend east of the King Road Bridge The preliminary design drawings will identifythe exact extend of the road widening Please refer to the next question regarding apermit letter from the Region
middot Is this something that Peel is expecting to cost share with York Region If so we will need tobudget some money in our capital program

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements
AlbionVaughan Road Bridge
King Road Bridge
Caledon King Townline Bridge
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Freeboard clearance and relief flow depth
SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullProperties within the study area are not considered to be of cultural heritage value or interestndash No further cultural heritage assessment of study is required
bullA Preliminary (Stage 1) and detailed (Stage 2) archaeology assessment was conductedndash No archaeological resources were identified
Archaeological Assessment ndash Stage 2
Archaeological Assessment ndash Stage 2
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullThe majority of the study area is within the Greenbelt Plan area
bullToronto Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) Natural Heritage System extends into the study area
bullAlthough Species at Risk have been previously recorded in natural areas adjacent to the study area no Species at Risk or locally rare species were found in the immediate study area during field investigations
bullTwo watercourses designated as fish habitat are within the study areandashCold CreekndashHumber River
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bull44 water well records were identified within 500m of the study area but no municipal or public wells were identified
bullA private well survey was completed for the study areas and 10 domestic well residences were identified
bullA meander belt assessment indicates that any necessary modifications andor reconstruction of the three structures should be conducted outside of the watercourse meander belt width to the extent possible
Albion Vaughan Road Crossing
EXISTING CONDITIONS
HEALTH RELATED ndash NOISE AND AIR QUALITYbullCurrently noise exceeds the Regional
standard noise level limit However since noise barrier walls are only installed to minimize the noise perceived at outside living spaces (ie backyards) this type of mitigation measure is not recommended in the study area
bullCurrent concentration of common air contaminants generated by internal combustion engine vehicles such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides are below current standards and guidelines
bullOnly concentration of hydrocarbons (ie benzene) was found over applicable standards
EXISTING CONDITIONS
bullThe results of the operational analysis for the future (2031) lsquoDo Nothingrsquo scenario projects the following conditions if intersection improvements are not implemented

POTENTIAL PHASING
bullThe project is planned to be implemented in two phasesndashPhase 1 Interim Solution (an additional northbound right-turn lane)
ndashPhase 2 Ultimate Solution (Preferred Alternative Solution)
bullThe interim solution will be completed prior to the implementation of the preferred solution to address existing safety concerns
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection
The replacement of structures adjacent to the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street is anticipated to delay the implementation of the preferred alternative solution as the study area includes roads that are not within the Region of Peel jurisdiction
TECHNICALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
bullThe ultimate solution includes
bullAddition of a northbound through-right lane
bullConverting existing southbound exclusive right turn lane to southbound through-right lane
bullAddition of a westbound through-right Lane

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements
AlbionVaughan Road Bridge
King Road Bridge
Caledon King Townline Bridge
EXISTING CONDITIONS

bullTwo watercourses designated as fish habitat are within the study areandashCold CreekndashHumber River
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bull44 water well records were identified within 500m of the study area but no municipal or public wells were identified
bullA private well survey was completed for the study areas and 10 domestic well residences were identified
bullA meander belt assessment indicates that any necessary modifications andor reconstruction of the three structures should be conducted outside of the watercourse meander belt width to the extent possible
Albion Vaughan Road Crossing
EXISTING CONDITIONS
HEALTH RELATED ndash NOISE AND AIR QUALITYbullCurrently noise exceeds the Regional
standard noise level limit However since noise barrier walls are only installed to minimize the noise perceived at outside living spaces (ie backyards) this type of mitigation measure is not recommended in the study area
bullCurrent concentration of common air contaminants generated by internal combustion engine vehicles such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides are below current standards and guidelines
bullOnly concentration of hydrocarbons (ie benzene) was found over applicable standards

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements
AlbionVaughan Road Bridge
King Road Bridge
Caledon King Townline Bridge
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Freeboard clearance and relief flow depth
SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullProperties within the study area are not considered to be of cultural heritage value or interestndash No further cultural heritage assessment of study is required
bullA Preliminary (Stage 1) and detailed (Stage 2) archaeology assessment was conductedndash No archaeological resources were identified

bullTwo watercourses designated as fish habitat are within the study areandashCold CreekndashHumber River
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bull44 water well records were identified within 500m of the study area but no municipal or public wells were identified
bullA private well survey was completed for the study areas and 10 domestic well residences were identified
bullA meander belt assessment indicates that any necessary modifications andor reconstruction of the three structures should be conducted outside of the watercourse meander belt width to the extent possible

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hi Steve Sorry for the delay response As Regional Shared the Albion Vaughan Road with York Region as aboundary road wersquore expecting the project cost to be shared 50 - 50 with York Region Irsquove been waiting for CIMA to complete the cost estimate includes detailed design Construction andCA of the project Irsquove just been informed that York Regionsrsquo budget deadline is sometime in Mayand if time will not permit to await for the final estimate from CIMA you could base your budget onthe following estimate Irsquove received the following preliminary estimate from CIMAInterim include southbound right turn lane extension and the new northbound right turn lane thecost adjustment is as below middot Item 1 Right Turn Lane $245000 cost is approximately correct
middot Item 2 4-way temporary signal $25000 is too low my estimate is $50000 to$75000 rangemiddot Item 3 4-way permanent signals $75000 is low my estimate is $125000middot Item 4 Utility relocations $150000 is probably is ok The southeast corner has bellrelocation And at least two hydro pole relocationmiddot Item 5 Property we are not sure if the property information is correct If it is correctthe southbound right turn lane requires 250sm property therefore the cost should be$38750middot Item 6 Sidewalk we assumed the sidewalk is for north leg west side We adjusted theunit price from $50m2 $75m2 Therefore the cost should be $18150middot Item 7 Trees assumed the tree is for Southbound right turn lane extension The costis ok for this one So for conclusion the summary is as belowmiddot EA Study $260000
Project cost $654000middot Design 15 (not 10) of Construction Cost $98000middot CA 8 (not 5) of construction cost $52000 - Sub-total $1064000
While the project estimate has not been finalized I propose to allow additional 200k forcontingency The estimated total project cost will be $ 12 million To share 50 of the cost pleasebudget 600k in York Regionrsquos capital program The project timeline for Interim solution

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements

SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullProperties within the study area are not considered to be of cultural heritage value or interestndash No further cultural heritage assessment of study is required
bullA Preliminary (Stage 1) and detailed (Stage 2) archaeology assessment was conductedndash No archaeological resources were identified

Archaeological Assessment ndash Stage 2
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullThe majority of the study area is within the Greenbelt Plan area
bullToronto Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) Natural Heritage System extends into the study area
bullAlthough Species at Risk have been previously recorded in natural areas adjacent to the study area no Species at Risk or locally rare species were found in the immediate study area during field investigations
bullTwo watercourses designated as fish habitat are within the study areandashCold CreekndashHumber River
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bull44 water well records were identified within 500m of the study area but no municipal or public wells were identified
bullA private well survey was completed for the study areas and 10 domestic well residences were identified
bullA meander belt assessment indicates that any necessary modifications andor reconstruction of the three structures should be conducted outside of the watercourse meander belt width to the extent possible
Albion Vaughan Road Crossing
EXISTING CONDITIONS
HEALTH RELATED ndash NOISE AND AIR QUALITYbullCurrently noise exceeds the Regional
standard noise level limit However since noise barrier walls are only installed to minimize the noise perceived at outside living spaces (ie backyards) this type of mitigation measure is not recommended in the study area
bullCurrent concentration of common air contaminants generated by internal combustion engine vehicles such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides are below current standards and guidelines
bullOnly concentration of hydrocarbons (ie benzene) was found over applicable standards
EXISTING CONDITIONS

POTENTIAL PHASING
bullThe project is planned to be implemented in two phasesndashPhase 1 Interim Solution (an additional northbound right-turn lane)
ndashPhase 2 Ultimate Solution (Preferred Alternative Solution)
bullThe interim solution will be completed prior to the implementation of the preferred solution to address existing safety concerns
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection
The replacement of structures adjacent to the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street is anticipated to delay the implementation of the preferred alternative solution as the study area includes roads that are not within the Region of Peel jurisdiction
TECHNICALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
bullThe ultimate solution includes
bullAddition of a northbound through-right lane
bullConverting existing southbound exclusive right turn lane to southbound through-right lane
bullAddition of a westbound through-right Lane
bullConverting existing eastbound exclusive right turn lane to eastbound through-right lane
bullOpportunities for integration of sidewalks in all segments of the intersection as well as cycling facilities to tie into eventual active transportation facilities along the King Street corridor
Alternative 5 ndash Widening to Four Lanes has been selected as it best addresses the future traffic
needs of the intersection

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hi TareqThanks for your e-mail Richard Hui is no longer with York Region so if you can add me to the mailinglist that would be greatly appreciated Please let me know what your schedule is for filing the EA and whether you can share thepreliminary design with York Region in advance of filing There are a few questionscomments that I have at this time Feel free to call me to discuss
- What is the limit of Peel Regionrsquos jurisdiction related to the east leg of the intersection- Does the project extends into York Regionrsquos jurisdiction on King Road If so will you need a
letter from York Region to include in the project file as it relates to the project within Yorkrsquosjurisdiction

Phase 3bullProject
Implementation (Design and Construction)
We are here
PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements
AlbionVaughan Road Bridge
King Road Bridge
Caledon King Townline Bridge
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Freeboard clearance and relief flow depth
SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullProperties within the study area are not considered to be of cultural heritage value or interestndash No further cultural heritage assessment of study is required
bullA Preliminary (Stage 1) and detailed (Stage 2) archaeology assessment was conductedndash No archaeological resources were identified
Archaeological Assessment ndash Stage 2
Archaeological Assessment ndash Stage 2
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bullThe majority of the study area is within the Greenbelt Plan area
bullToronto Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) Natural Heritage System extends into the study area
bullAlthough Species at Risk have been previously recorded in natural areas adjacent to the study area no Species at Risk or locally rare species were found in the immediate study area during field investigations
bullTwo watercourses designated as fish habitat are within the study areandashCold CreekndashHumber River
EXISTING CONDITIONS
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
bull44 water well records were identified within 500m of the study area but no municipal or public wells were identified
bullA private well survey was completed for the study areas and 10 domestic well residences were identified
bullA meander belt assessment indicates that any necessary modifications andor reconstruction of the three structures should be conducted outside of the watercourse meander belt width to the extent possible
Albion Vaughan Road Crossing
EXISTING CONDITIONS
HEALTH RELATED ndash NOISE AND AIR QUALITYbullCurrently noise exceeds the Regional
standard noise level limit However since noise barrier walls are only installed to minimize the noise perceived at outside living spaces (ie backyards) this type of mitigation measure is not recommended in the study area
bullCurrent concentration of common air contaminants generated by internal combustion engine vehicles such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides are below current standards and guidelines
bullOnly concentration of hydrocarbons (ie benzene) was found over applicable standards
EXISTING CONDITIONS
bullThe results of the operational analysis for the future (2031) lsquoDo Nothingrsquo scenario projects the following conditions if intersection improvements are not implemented
ndashAM Peak Hour bullMost movements operating over capacity indicating that the intersection is operating over capacity
FUTURE PROJECTED TRAFFIC CONDITIONS

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

PROBLEM STATEMENT
bullCurrent traffic conditions (long queues and delay) at the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street East (Peel Regional Road 9)King Road (York Regional Road 11) are problematic
bull It is expected that these conditions will worsen in the future due to a significant increase of traffic along King Street and Albion Vaughan Road
bullThis intersection will significantly benefit from operational and safety improvements for all modes of transportation
bullCurrently all four sections of the intersection are owned by four different jurisdictions
Study Area
TRANSPORTATION
bullSignalized Intersection Posted speed limit within the study area is 60 kmh
bullRural area with residential homes scattered throughout
bullVehicular traffic at the intersection during the most travelled time of the day exceeds the capacity of the northbound portion which affects the entire operation of the intersection generating an increase on travel time of 70 seconds per vehicle
bullThe current rural nature of the intersection provides few opportunities for walking and cycling
EXISTING CONDITIONS
ENGINEERING
bullThere are 3 existing structures present in the study area
bullFrom a structural perspective existing conditions of all structures are adequate
bullFrom a hydraulic perspective - meaning the relationship between the geometrics of the structure and the corresponding watercourse all structures requires mitigation measures to comply with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) requirements

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hi Steve Sorry for the delay response As Regional Shared the Albion Vaughan Road with York Region as aboundary road wersquore expecting the project cost to be shared 50 - 50 with York Region Irsquove been waiting for CIMA to complete the cost estimate includes detailed design Construction andCA of the project Irsquove just been informed that York Regionsrsquo budget deadline is sometime in Mayand if time will not permit to await for the final estimate from CIMA you could base your budget onthe following estimate Irsquove received the following preliminary estimate from CIMAInterim include southbound right turn lane extension and the new northbound right turn lane thecost adjustment is as below middot Item 1 Right Turn Lane $245000 cost is approximately correct
middot Item 2 4-way temporary signal $25000 is too low my estimate is $50000 to$75000 rangemiddot Item 3 4-way permanent signals $75000 is low my estimate is $125000middot Item 4 Utility relocations $150000 is probably is ok The southeast corner has bellrelocation And at least two hydro pole relocationmiddot Item 5 Property we are not sure if the property information is correct If it is correctthe southbound right turn lane requires 250sm property therefore the cost should be$38750middot Item 6 Sidewalk we assumed the sidewalk is for north leg west side We adjusted theunit price from $50m2 $75m2 Therefore the cost should be $18150middot Item 7 Trees assumed the tree is for Southbound right turn lane extension The costis ok for this one So for conclusion the summary is as belowmiddot EA Study $260000
Project cost $654000middot Design 15 (not 10) of Construction Cost $98000middot CA 8 (not 5) of construction cost $52000 - Sub-total $1064000
While the project estimate has not been finalized I propose to allow additional 200k forcontingency The estimated total project cost will be $ 12 million To share 50 of the cost pleasebudget 600k in York Regionrsquos capital program The project timeline for Interim solution

bullThe project is planned to be implemented in two phasesndashPhase 1 Interim Solution (an additional northbound right-turn lane)
ndashPhase 2 Ultimate Solution (Preferred Alternative Solution)
bullThe interim solution will be completed prior to the implementation of the preferred solution to address existing safety concerns
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection
The replacement of structures adjacent to the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street is anticipated to delay the implementation of the preferred alternative solution as the study area includes roads that are not within the Region of Peel jurisdiction
TECHNICALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
bullThe ultimate solution includes
bullAddition of a northbound through-right lane
bullConverting existing southbound exclusive right turn lane to southbound through-right lane
bullAddition of a westbound through-right Lane
bullConverting existing eastbound exclusive right turn lane to eastbound through-right lane
bullOpportunities for integration of sidewalks in all segments of the intersection as well as cycling facilities to tie into eventual active transportation facilities along the King Street corridor

too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural

15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

POTENTIAL PHASING
bullThe project is planned to be implemented in two phasesndashPhase 1 Interim Solution (an additional northbound right-turn lane)
ndashPhase 2 Ultimate Solution (Preferred Alternative Solution)
bullThe interim solution will be completed prior to the implementation of the preferred solution to address existing safety concerns
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection
The replacement of structures adjacent to the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street is anticipated to delay the implementation of the preferred alternative solution as the study area includes roads that are not within the Region of Peel jurisdiction
TECHNICALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
bullThe ultimate solution includes
bullAddition of a northbound through-right lane
bullConverting existing southbound exclusive right turn lane to southbound through-right lane
bullAddition of a westbound through-right Lane
bullConverting existing eastbound exclusive right turn lane to eastbound through-right lane
bullOpportunities for integration of sidewalks in all segments of the intersection as well as cycling facilities to tie into eventual active transportation facilities along the King Street corridor

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hi TareqThanks for your e-mail Richard Hui is no longer with York Region so if you can add me to the mailinglist that would be greatly appreciated Please let me know what your schedule is for filing the EA and whether you can share thepreliminary design with York Region in advance of filing There are a few questionscomments that I have at this time Feel free to call me to discuss
- What is the limit of Peel Regionrsquos jurisdiction related to the east leg of the intersection- Does the project extends into York Regionrsquos jurisdiction on King Road If so will you need a
letter from York Region to include in the project file as it relates to the project within Yorkrsquosjurisdiction
- Is this something that Peel is expecting to cost share with York Region If so we will need tobudget some money in our capital program

POTENTIAL PHASING
bullThe project is planned to be implemented in two phasesndashPhase 1 Interim Solution (an additional northbound right-turn lane)
ndashPhase 2 Ultimate Solution (Preferred Alternative Solution)
bullThe interim solution will be completed prior to the implementation of the preferred solution to address existing safety concerns
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection
The replacement of structures adjacent to the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street is anticipated to delay the implementation of the preferred alternative solution as the study area includes roads that are not within the Region of Peel jurisdiction
TECHNICALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
bullThe ultimate solution includes
bullAddition of a northbound through-right lane
bullConverting existing southbound exclusive right turn lane to southbound through-right lane
bullAddition of a westbound through-right Lane
bullConverting existing eastbound exclusive right turn lane to eastbound through-right lane
bullOpportunities for integration of sidewalks in all segments of the intersection as well as cycling facilities to tie into eventual active transportation facilities along the King Street corridor

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

Memorandum

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hi TareqThanks for your e-mail Richard Hui is no longer with York Region so if you can add me to the mailinglist that would be greatly appreciated Please let me know what your schedule is for filing the EA and whether you can share thepreliminary design with York Region in advance of filing There are a few questionscomments that I have at this time Feel free to call me to discuss
- What is the limit of Peel Regionrsquos jurisdiction related to the east leg of the intersection- Does the project extends into York Regionrsquos jurisdiction on King Road If so will you need a
letter from York Region to include in the project file as it relates to the project within Yorkrsquosjurisdiction
- Is this something that Peel is expecting to cost share with York Region If so we will need tobudget some money in our capital program

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hi TareqThanks for your e-mail Richard Hui is no longer with York Region so if you can add me to the mailinglist that would be greatly appreciated Please let me know what your schedule is for filing the EA and whether you can share thepreliminary design with York Region in advance of filing There are a few questionscomments that I have at this time Feel free to call me to discuss
- What is the limit of Peel Regionrsquos jurisdiction related to the east leg of the intersection- Does the project extends into York Regionrsquos jurisdiction on King Road If so will you need a
letter from York Region to include in the project file as it relates to the project within Yorkrsquosjurisdiction
- Is this something that Peel is expecting to cost share with York Region If so we will need tobudget some money in our capital program

bullThe project is planned to be implemented in two phasesndashPhase 1 Interim Solution (an additional northbound right-turn lane)
ndashPhase 2 Ultimate Solution (Preferred Alternative Solution)
bullThe interim solution will be completed prior to the implementation of the preferred solution to address existing safety concerns
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection
The replacement of structures adjacent to the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street is anticipated to delay the implementation of the preferred alternative solution as the study area includes roads that are not within the Region of Peel jurisdiction
TECHNICALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
bullThe ultimate solution includes
bullAddition of a northbound through-right lane
bullConverting existing southbound exclusive right turn lane to southbound through-right lane
bullAddition of a westbound through-right Lane
bullConverting existing eastbound exclusive right turn lane to eastbound through-right lane
bullOpportunities for integration of sidewalks in all segments of the intersection as well as cycling facilities to tie into eventual active transportation facilities along the King Street corridor

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

bullThe project is planned to be implemented in two phasesndashPhase 1 Interim Solution (an additional northbound right-turn lane)
ndashPhase 2 Ultimate Solution (Preferred Alternative Solution)
bullThe interim solution will be completed prior to the implementation of the preferred solution to address existing safety concerns
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection
The replacement of structures adjacent to the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street is anticipated to delay the implementation of the preferred alternative solution as the study area includes roads that are not within the Region of Peel jurisdiction
TECHNICALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
bullThe ultimate solution includes
bullAddition of a northbound through-right lane
bullConverting existing southbound exclusive right turn lane to southbound through-right lane
bullAddition of a westbound through-right Lane
bullConverting existing eastbound exclusive right turn lane to eastbound through-right lane
bullOpportunities for integration of sidewalks in all segments of the intersection as well as cycling facilities to tie into eventual active transportation facilities along the King Street corridor
Alternative 5 ndash Widening to Four Lanes has been selected as it best addresses the future traffic
needs of the intersection

TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hi Steve Sorry for the delay response As Regional Shared the Albion Vaughan Road with York Region as aboundary road wersquore expecting the project cost to be shared 50 - 50 with York Region Irsquove been waiting for CIMA to complete the cost estimate includes detailed design Construction andCA of the project Irsquove just been informed that York Regionsrsquo budget deadline is sometime in Mayand if time will not permit to await for the final estimate from CIMA you could base your budget onthe following estimate Irsquove received the following preliminary estimate from CIMAInterim include southbound right turn lane extension and the new northbound right turn lane thecost adjustment is as below middot Item 1 Right Turn Lane $245000 cost is approximately correct
middot Item 2 4-way temporary signal $25000 is too low my estimate is $50000 to$75000 rangemiddot Item 3 4-way permanent signals $75000 is low my estimate is $125000middot Item 4 Utility relocations $150000 is probably is ok The southeast corner has bellrelocation And at least two hydro pole relocationmiddot Item 5 Property we are not sure if the property information is correct If it is correctthe southbound right turn lane requires 250sm property therefore the cost should be$38750middot Item 6 Sidewalk we assumed the sidewalk is for north leg west side We adjusted theunit price from $50m2 $75m2 Therefore the cost should be $18150middot Item 7 Trees assumed the tree is for Southbound right turn lane extension The costis ok for this one So for conclusion the summary is as belowmiddot EA Study $260000
Project cost $654000middot Design 15 (not 10) of Construction Cost $98000middot CA 8 (not 5) of construction cost $52000 - Sub-total $1064000
While the project estimate has not been finalized I propose to allow additional 200k forcontingency The estimated total project cost will be $ 12 million To share 50 of the cost pleasebudget 600k in York Regionrsquos capital program The project timeline for Interim solution

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

POTENTIAL PHASING
bullThe project is planned to be implemented in two phasesndashPhase 1 Interim Solution (an additional northbound right-turn lane)
ndashPhase 2 Ultimate Solution (Preferred Alternative Solution)
bullThe interim solution will be completed prior to the implementation of the preferred solution to address existing safety concerns
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection
The replacement of structures adjacent to the intersection of Albion Vaughan Road and King Street is anticipated to delay the implementation of the preferred alternative solution as the study area includes roads that are not within the Region of Peel jurisdiction
TECHNICALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
bullThe ultimate solution includes
bullAddition of a northbound through-right lane
bullConverting existing southbound exclusive right turn lane to southbound through-right lane
bullAddition of a westbound through-right Lane
bullConverting existing eastbound exclusive right turn lane to eastbound through-right lane
bullOpportunities for integration of sidewalks in all segments of the intersection as well as cycling facilities to tie into eventual active transportation facilities along the King Street corridor
Alternative 5 ndash Widening to Four Lanes has been selected as it best addresses the future traffic
needs of the intersection
LegendRepresents the new movements being added at the intersection

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Memorandum

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Memorandum

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

provided by TRCA with respect of the content of the draft technical reports completed as part of
the Schedule B Class Environmental Assessment
As requested the following submission to TRCA will include this document in the form of a cover
letter as well as the following documentation
Hard copy of the final technical reports
Two (2) copies of the draft Project File Report
Digital copies of all reports and drawings in a PDF format

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

middot Item 2 4-way temporary signal $25000 is too low my estimate is $50000 to$75000 rangemiddot Item 3 4-way permanent signals $75000 is low my estimate is $125000middot Item 4 Utility relocations $150000 is probably is ok The southeast corner has bellrelocation And at least two hydro pole relocationmiddot Item 5 Property we are not sure if the property information is correct If it is correctthe southbound right turn lane requires 250sm property therefore the cost should be$38750middot Item 6 Sidewalk we assumed the sidewalk is for north leg west side We adjusted theunit price from $50m2 $75m2 Therefore the cost should be $18150middot Item 7 Trees assumed the tree is for Southbound right turn lane extension The costis ok for this one So for conclusion the summary is as belowmiddot EA Study $260000
Project cost $654000middot Design 15 (not 10) of Construction Cost $98000middot CA 8 (not 5) of construction cost $52000 - Sub-total $1064000
While the project estimate has not been finalized I propose to allow additional 200k forcontingency The estimated total project cost will be $ 12 million To share 50 of the cost pleasebudget 600k in York Regionrsquos capital program The project timeline for Interim solution

middot Please let me know what your schedule is for filing the EA and whether you can share thepreliminary design with York Region in advance of filing
o Filing of the Project Report is expected to be completed by AugustSeptember 2018An electronic copy of the preliminary design for the interim and the final preferredalternative will be provided by the Region of Peel in advance
middot What is the limit of Peel Regionrsquos jurisdiction related to the east leg of the intersectiono The east limits of the proposed improvements for the interim preferred alternative
(northbound right turn lane) is the bridge structure located east of the intersection(King Road Bridge)
middot Does the project extends into York Regionrsquos jurisdiction on King Road If so will you need aletter from York Region to include in the project file as it relates to the project within Yorkrsquosjurisdiction
o The limits of the final preferred design (widening the intersection to 4 lanes) mayextend east of the King Road Bridge The preliminary design drawings will identifythe exact extend of the road widening Please refer to the next question regarding apermit letter from the Region
middot Is this something that Peel is expecting to cost share with York Region If so we will need tobudget some money in our capital program

Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

TRCA comments Response
1 Evaluation table contained
too many TBD Clarify how
evaluation was completed
At the time of the TAC meeting a preliminary preferred
solution was identified As agency comments were
received and studies were completed a preferred
solution was selected It should be noted that although
other design alternatives were considered such as
relocation of Albion-Vaughan Road to the west those
were considered not feasible
2 There is no space for
widening and a retaining
wall on the east side without
impacting Cold Creek
Widening to the west was considered as part of the
evaluation of alternative process and it was
immediately clear that the impacts to private property
would be severe and permanent
In the other hand the impacts to Cold Creek can be
mitigated with the use of a MSERSS wall rather than
the cast-in-place reinforced concrete retaining wall The
advantage of using this type of structure includes
Could lessen the required depth of earth excavation
(shallow concrete levelling pad)
Could mitigate interference with the flows in the
meandering watercourse
Could eliminate the need to restore the watercourse
to the pre-construction condition
Could eliminate potential conflicts with buried
utilities and
Accelerated construction schedule less duration for
work at and below the normal water level in
watercourse
The pre-screening of these alternatives will be
discussed in the Project File

TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File
Page 4 of 5
Memorandum
December 06 2018
Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design

I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Albion-Vaughan Road and King Street Intersection Improvements
TRCA comments Response
3 Consider setting back the
westbound traffic stop lines
on King Street as an interim
measure to address safety
concerns or other less
intrusive measures instead
of the northbound RTL and
retaining wall
Transportation engineers with expertise in addressing
safety issues played a key role in developing alternative
solutions and interim measures A range of possible
solutions was investigated and the interim measure
proposed was recommended because it is the best
solution in the circumstance Assessment of traffic
operations and safety is complex Adjustments to
location of stop bars as suggested by TRCA will not be
sufficient to address the safety concern
4 Impacts of each alternative
on the meander belt of the
watercourses was not
assessed
Although several alternatives were considered during
the evaluation process aside of those requiring the
relocation of the intersection to the west (which was
considered unfeasible) all of them requires modification
to the existing structures north or east of the
intersection Potential effects of those modifications are
currently included in the respective technical reports
and we will be highlighted as part of the content of the
File Report
5 Bridge span widening is not
proposed at any of the
crossings which is
inconsistent with the
recommendations from the
Fluvial Geomorphic
Assessment
No widenings are proposed The impact assessment
with regard to the meander belt will be updated in the
evaluation including a statement on why the
recommendations are not being applied
6 Assess impacts of the
alternatives on stormwater
quantity quality and water
balance
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
7 Provide an assessment of
potential future issues
requirements and costs
associated with
maintenance of the
retaining wall
This will be addressed in the Project File

TRCA comments Response
8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping
toolbox
15 The term lsquobridge wideningrsquo
is used inappropriately
Change to lsquobridge
extensionrsquo
Noted However please note that modifications to the
structure will not change the span of the bridges

TRCA comments Response
16 Discuss the impacts of
climate change in the
Project File
This is now a standard practice required by MOECC for
all EArsquos It will be included in the Project File
17 The condition of Structure
3 is inconsistently
reported Please clarify
The referred comment was a misinterpretation of
Structure 3 provided by the Township of King
The referred structure in poor condition is located farther
north of the intersection of King Street and outside of
the study area
18 Clarify is hydro poles or
other utilities will be
impacted or will require
relocation
Information regarding relocation of utilities will be
included as part of preliminary design
19 Final copies of reports are
to be signed and stamped
by qualified professionals

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

8 The hydraulic model for
Cold Creek needs to be
integrated with the model
for the Humber River to
accurately assess the
effects of the alternatives
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
9 Prepare a table that shows
the projected increases in
water levels for multiple
storm events for all of the
alternatives and identify the
impacts to properties
This will be reviewed by the stormwater engineer
10 Contact MNRF regarding
SAR Tree removal in bat
habitat may have mitigation
requirements
This has already been done
11 TRCA does not support
entry of dewatered water
into the watercourse
The proposed mitigation measures will be revised
12 Re-evaluate the proximity of
the proposed retaining wall
to Cold Creek
Please refer to Comment No 4 A complete set of
preliminary design drawings will be provided for
comments
13 Compensation for loss of
habitat will be required on
all TRCA lands
This will be examined and outlined in detail in the
Project File and Natural Environment Report
14 Replacement plantings are
required for all native and
non-native vegetation
This will be noted in the Project File and Natural
Environment Report following Regional Streetscaping

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette

Hello Jaime
I understand that the Draft Project File Report and associated materials will be circulated for TRCA staffreview prior to posting Please allow at least 30 business days for our staff to review the draft report Ialso understand that you would like preliminary comments to the responses provided in the memo Asrequested please see below for our preliminary comments
Comment 1Staff will review the updated Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR when it is available
Comment 2Staff understands and appreciates that widening to the west was considered as part of the evaluation ofalternatives process At this point in time it is staff opinion that there appears to be three options toaddress impacts to Cold Creek on the southeast corner of the intersection Please consider all of theseoptions within the Draft PFR
1 Appropriately designed retaining wall at Cold Creek A retaining wall at this location will have toconsider all costs associated with design and implementation including but not limited to studies(eg environmental impact study including inventory and assessment of florafauna and EcologicalLand Classification (ELC) fluvial geomorphology study hydrogeology study geotechnical studyetc) as well as cost analysis of future maintenance requirements associated with the wall
2 Realignment of Cold Creek away from the road A watercourse realignment will have to considerall costs associated with design and implementation Please see the TRCA Channel ModificationDesign and Submission Requirements (2007) for studies required for watercourse realignmentsPlease note that this section of Cold Creek is located on TRCA property As such any workrelated to a watercourse realignment at this location may be completed by or in partnership withTRCA Restoration Projects staff
3 Acquisition or expropriation of private property located on the west side of the intersection toaccommodate widening to the west It is staff opinion that the costs associated with acquisition orexpropriation should be weighed against costs for required studies and other work associated witha retaining wall or watercourse realignment
Comment 3No further comment
Comment 4Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately evaluates the impact of the various alternatives on the meander belt
Comment 5Please ensure that the Evaluation of Design Alternatives Table in the Draft PFR is updated so that itaccurately characterizes the impact of the proposed alternatives on the meander belt even if no bridgespan widening is proposed
Staff understands that further information in relation to the remaining comments will be provided within
the Draft PFR
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions at this point Thank youAnnette
