rdf:langString East Bayfront LRT is a proposed Toronto streetcar line that would serve the East Bayfront and Port Lands areas in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It would run from Union station under Bay Street and along Queens Quay and Cherry Street to a new Polson Loop near the intersection of Cherry and Polson Streets in the Port Lands. It would complement the existing 509 Harbourfront service which connects Union Station to Queens Quay west of Bay Street. Longer term plans are to extend the East Bayfront line from Cherry and Commissioners Streets to the proposed East Harbour station along the planned Ontario Line. The Waterfront East LRT Extension is a City of Toronto project to develop the East Bayfront LRT. The project involves both Waterfront Toronto and the Toronto Transit Commission. The proposed line is part of the Waterfront Transit Network which also includes the Waterfront West LRT. Design for the project is scheduled to start in 2022. The design work is 30 percent funded and would require City Council approval for further funding and completion. If City Council approves the design, construction would start in 2025, and the line would fully open in 2031.
