1.0 Purpose of a TTC Review

The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) reviews development proposals which are located
within 60 metres of a TTC structure or right-of-way (R-O-W). This review ensures that a
proposed development will not adversely impact TTC’s current and future operations or
impact the integrity of TTC’s facilities, property, and structures.

The TTC review of a development proposal is broken down into two separate review types:
TTC Planning Review - examining transportation/urban planning and TTC Technical Review
– examining the technical engineering aspects of the proposal. This review process follows
the municipal approval process running concurrently with the City Planning & Building
permitting process.

The following graphic depicts, in general terms, the TTC review


process which runs concurrently with the City of Toronto
planning application and building permitting.

December 2018 Page 2 of 37


As a result of the Planning or Technical Review, modification of the development proposal
may be required in order to bring the development into conformance with TTC requirements,
and/or reduce or eliminate any impact(s) on TTC operations, facilities, property, and/or
structures. For developments that are subject to a TTC Technical Review, written responses
to comments will be required, explaining rationale or indicating agreement to make changes.
Upon receipt of technical documents that address technical comments satisfactorily, TTC
will provide written notice to the Developer. The City of Toronto requires TTC’s written
notice of the satisfactory completion of the Technical Review prior to entering into a site
plan agreement and prior to issuing a shoring/building permit for the proposed development.

2.0 TTC Reviews

Prior to the submission of a planning application it is recommended that the Developer


contact the TTC’s Development Coordinator to discuss the proposal and potential impacts
upon TTC property, facilities, and/or structures.

The following steps are required as part of the TTC Technical review process:

1. Contact the TTC’s Development Coordinator for preliminary information regarding the
location of the development site in relation to the TTC 60m Development Review Zone
and the need for a TTC Technical Review.

In order to establish the location of TTC infrastructure, within the 60m zone of
influence, the third party shall obtain TTC technical information, including TTC facility
location, structural, electrical, and mechanical drawings in relation to the development
site. A pre-condition to obtaining the TTC facility drawing information is the execution
of a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) by the third party and the TTC regarding the
release of the TTC facility information in a form and content similar to that attached as
Appendix I. The process for drawing distribution requires that the third party visit our
office to view and select the drawings required for their project/works from our archived
contract library. Call the TTC’s Engineering Department at (416) 590-6396 to initiate
the third party drawing request process. It will take approximately 4 business days after
your visit to the TTC office for the selected drawings to be emailed to you.

Note: TTC facility drawings are the property of the TTC and shall not be reproduced or
transmitted to any other party without the consent of the TTC. TTC facility drawings
may be obtained at a cost of $25.00 plus HST for each of the first six and $5.00 plus
HST for each additional drawing. (Drawings will be released in PDF file format only)
Payment by cheque or credit card is required prior to receipt of the documents.

2. To initiate the Technical Review, submit the Request for Review Level form and
associated materials to the Development Coordinator. The request for review level is
required for every Technical Review and allows preliminary review of the development
proposal. Upon completion of the preliminary review, the Development Coordinator will
confirm the Technical Review level and submission requirements.

3. Preliminary meetings are required for proposals resulting in a Technical Review Level 5 or
greater, or if a new entrance connection forms part of the development proposal. The

December 2018 Page 3 of 37


purpose of a preliminary meeting provides the Developer an opportunity to meet with
TTC staff to discuss the proposed development and determine constraints, if any, to the
design and construction of the development.

3.0 Planning Review

The TTC’s Planning Review is the first step in the review of a development proposal and is
coordinated by the TTC Strategy and Service Planning Department. The TTC Planning
Review does not require a fee payment and is triggered by TTC’s receipt of a planning
application from City of Toronto Community Planning or Committee of Adjustment. Many
development applications received will not require a Technical Review because they are
located outside of the TTC’s 60m review zone, but other conditions may be placed on the
development to support transit ridership and mitigate impacts on transit operations. The
TTC Planning Review examines the impacts of the proposed development on TTC facilities
and operations. Planning considerations can include station/terminal accessibility, proposed
use types, building placement, traffic impacts, urban design, access, and pedestrian
connections. The TTC Planning Review will also confirm the necessity for a TTC Technical
Review and set out the Technical Review level if one is required.

Comments included in the TTC Planning Review will follow the City Planning process and
will set out conditions for the proposed development. The conditions will include the
requirements for a technical review submission, entering into specific agreements, land
transfers, station access requirements, and/or easements which may be required by the
TTC. The requirement for a given agreement between the Developer and the City of
Toronto and/or the TTC will vary depending upon the complexity of the proposal. The
following sets out, in general terms, the type, purpose, and approximate timing of typical
agreements. Other agreements not listed below may also be required depending upon the
proposal.

3.1 Land Transfer or Exchange Agreements:

The TTC may require a Developer to enter into a Land Transfer Agreement with the City
when land is required for TTC facilities within the development site. In some cases this
agreement may be requested when TTC or City lands are required by the Developer in order
to facilitate the development.

Note: The TTC requires 3.0 metres of property around all TTC facilities. This property will
be requested by the TTC in either strata or fee simple, and will be owned by the City on
behalf of the TTC. The properties around the TTC facilities will provide the TTC future
access for the operation, maintenance, expansion, and reconstruction of the TTC facilities.

December 2018 Page 4 of 37


3.2 Construction Agreement:

A Construction Agreement will generally be required for development proposals requiring a


technical review Levels 3 – 6. . A Construction Agreement is established between the
Developer, TTC and/or the City of Toronto and sets out the specific requirements, and
parameters of the construction of the development to ensure protection of TTC
infrastructure and operations. This agreement must be executed prior to the release of the
first building permit and start of any excavation and shoring work. In some circumstances
this agreement may be required prior to demolition works on the site.

3.3 Mutual Easement and Shared Facilities Agreement (MESFA):

A Mutual Easement and Shared Facilities Agreement (MESFA) may be required for
development proposals requiring a Level 3 and above. The MESFA is necessary where a
development is adjacent or connects to a TTC facility or structure, including an Entrance
Connection. This agreement may also be required if the development is built overtop of a
TTC structure or facility and where there are any encroachments into the TTC right-of-way.
This agreement will outline the requirements for TTC access to the structures and facilities
including access over or through the development parcel in order to facilitate the
maintenance, rehabilitation, or replacement of these features. This agreement is required
prior to the issuance of the full building permit for the development and comes into effect
upon completion and occupancy of the development.

3.4 Mutual Easement and Shared Facilities Agreement (MESFA) for Entrance
Connections:

The provision of an Entrance Connection refers to all aspects of a transit connection,


including but not limited to the design, construction, the supply and installation of fare
collection equipment, electrical services, stairs, elevators, escalators, security features,
wayfinding and signage, and other elements or components of an Entrance Connection as
applicable. A MESFA is required for all developments which propose an Entrance Connection
to a TTC Station. Entrance Connection proposals are required to undergo a TTC Technical
Review as further outlined in Section 7.5 Entrance Connection Review Submissions.

Please contact the TTC’s Development Coordinator for further details regarding Entrance
Connection Agreements and obtain a copy of the TTC’s Entrance Connection Guide.

4.0 Technical Review

The TTC Technical Review consists of the review of the construction documents (plans and
specifications) for the proposed development as submitted to the City of Toronto through
the building permitting process. The focus of the Technical Review is the impact that the
construction of the project will have on TTC operations and facilities. Also, the Developer
shall consider and incorporate CPTED (Crime Prevention through Environmental Design)
principles at areas of interaction between the Development and TTC to prevent possible
adverse impact from the development on the personal security of TTC employees and
customers. The Technical Review may include the review of the demolition,

December 2018 Page 5 of 37


shoring/excavation, foundation, structural, superstructure, and mechanical/electrical
components of the development. This review is required to be fully completed prior to the
issuance of a building permit for the applicable phase or stage of development.

The length of time required for the Technical Review will depend upon the size, complexity,
and degree of impact of the project upon the TTC structures and facilities. Generally the
TTC requires a 4-6 week review period for each complete submission. Multiple submissions
are generally required in order to fully satisfy TTC’s requirements. The review and
acceptance of a development proposal by the TTC does not exempt the development from
compliance with applicable codes and standards, local by-laws, and other governing
regulations. Upon final completion of the Technical Review, TTC will provide the necessary
clearances to the City of Toronto Planning & Building Departments.

The TTC has adopted a flat rate fee approach towards Technical Reviews. For most
Technical Reviews the cost to review a development proposal by TTC staff will be a fixed
cost that will be determined through the Technical Review process. The technical review
zone is identified on TTC Development Review Zone drawings which can be viewed at the
local Planning Department office.

4.1 Technical Review Classification

The following table outlines the six levels of technical review (plus a “Property Protection”
category) and their associated review fee in regards to development proposals within 60
metres of the TTC structure or right-of-way:

Level of Fixed Rate Fee

December 2018 Page 6 of 37


The Developer must submit a cheque for the fees corresponding to the established
Technical Review level either prior to or along with the initial Technical Review submission.
Upon receipt of a submission and cheque, the TTC will initiate the technical review and
confirm the review level classification based on the more detailed drawings.

For level 5 & 6 Technical Reviews the Developer may pay the Technical Review fee in
separate instalments of a minimum amount of $9,000. The first instalment must be paid
prior to or along with the first submission of the Technical Review. The total fee must be
paid prior to the TTC final clearance of the proposal.

Note: Significant changes in the development proposal or construction methods may result
in a re-categorization of the review level. The TTC reserves the right to change the fee
category if a revised design results in greater impacts upon TTC facilities or structures. In
the event the fee category changes at a subsequent stage in the process, an adjustment will
be made and the Developer must pay or the TTC will refund the cost difference between the
technical reviews. The TTC may provide documentation to substantiate the cost difference.

5.0 Cost Reimbursable Technical Reviews

Level 6 Technical Reviews which examine complex proposals will be undertaken on a cost
reimbursable basis. In the event of a cost reimbursable review, an estimate of the cost of
the review will be developed by the TTC and provided to the Developer in advance of the
commencement of the Technical Review. At the time a technical review is initiated a
deposit amount will be requested from the Developer to cover the review fees.

The determination of the need for a cost reimbursable review is at the sole discretion of the
TTC. It is intended that cost reimbursable reviews would be the exception rather than the
rule and would only be utilized in extraordinary cases where multiple complex reviews are
expected to be required prior to final approval.

6.0 Costs Not Covered By Technical Review Fees

The flat rate technical review fee, as identified through the development review
classification only applies to the cost of the technical review. The following is a list of some
of the costs which may be encountered in addition to the technical review fee. There may
be additional costs which have not been included in the list.

 Cost of TTC power cuts, electrical or fire system load tests, including supervisory costs.
 Final connections to TTC electrical, communications, fire alarm systems.
 Flag duties for TTC operations.
 TTC safety/training requirements.
 Cost of operational diversions or other impacts on TTC operations.

7.0 Technical Review Submission Requirements

Information, drawings, and documents required for the review will vary by development. Not
every development will require all the items outlined below and some developments may
require additional items not specifically identified below. Actual requirements will be

December 2018 Page 7 of 37


determined through the completion of a formal Request for Review Level submission or a
meeting with TTC staff. The information, drawings, and documents submitted by the
Developer must demonstrate that the proposed development will not adversely impact
TTC’s current and future operations or impact the integrity and durability of TTC’s facilities,
property, and structures. All documents must be signed and sealed by the appropriate
professional responsible for preparing these documents.

7.1 Level 1 & 2 Reviews – Developments Within 60-Metres of TTC Structures or R-O-W

The following drawings/documents may be required for review.

1. An up-to-date survey and associated submittals as described in Appendix II.

2. A site plan of the development showing plan, profile and cross sectional outlines of
existing TTC infrastructure, including centre lines of track for bored tunnel and reference
lines of construction for box structure and other rights-of-way, together with minimum
clearance dimensions between existing TTC structures and new proposed structures, all
as further described in Appendix II.

3. Architectural drawings, structural drawings, foundation drawings and excavation shoring


drawings.

4. Plan and cross-sections of the development locating the TTC structure/R-O-W and
founding elevations relative to the development.

5. Location in plan and cross section of any above ground and underground storage tanks
for flammable or combustible liquid and associated piping, in relation to the TTC
structure/R-O-W.

6. A National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 130 review to ensure design requirements
outlined in the document “Standard for Fixed Guideway Transit and Passenger
Systems”, latest edition are met in relation to TTC’s infrastructures.

7. A study including a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model report indicating and
analyzing the relationship of the development’s air in-take/discharge openings to TTC’s
ventilation system shaft openings and station entrance openings. The development’s
building entrances and exits are required to be located at a minimum distance of 12
meters from TTC ventilation system shafts which are used for normal, maintenance and
emergency ventilation serving as in-take or exhaust vents dispersing: noise, fumes
(maintenance operation), high temperature smoke gases (emergency operation). This is
to be considered in the design of any adjacent buildings.

8. A geotechnical investigation report showing up-to-date geotechnical and geo-


environmental conditions at the site of the development and shall include, where
applicable, recommendations to mitigate any impact on TTC structures.

9. An impact assessment statement from the structural and/or geotechnical consultant


stating that the Development does not adversely affect TTC structures. No additional

December 2018 Page 8 of 37


load to existing TTC structures is allowed. No reduction in load to existing TTC
structures is allowed where such reduction in load adversely affects TTC structures.

10. Written acknowledgement that noise, vibration, electro-magnetic interference and


atmospheric emissions from TTC’s operations have been considered in the design of the
project, and appropriate mitigation measures applied.

11. Electrolysis and Stray Current Study, completed by a Professional Engineer.

7.2 Level 3 & 4 Reviews – Developments Founded Near TTC Structures or R-O-W

Applies to developments that have the potential to change the loading conditions on the
TTC structure, create unbalanced lateral earth pressure on the TTC structure, undermine the
TTC structure, or to affect TTC operations.

In addition to the Level 1 & 2 submission requirements, TTC requires the following
drawings/documents.

1. Structural analysis/calculations by the Developer’s consultant of the effects of all


applicable loadings, including construction loading, on the TTC structure, demonstrating
that the TTC structure will not be adversely affected by the development, including
solutions to mitigate any impact on TTC structures. The documentation must include
identification of the affected TTC structural units.

Note: The review of all submitted structural analysis/calculations will focus on design
assumptions, structural model, loads, load combinations, and codes that were used and
final results with discussion and/or recommendations. The review will be on the part of
the development that may affect TTC structures. All submitted calculations must be
legible and presented in a logical and easy-to-follow format. TTC will not accept any
responsibility for the accuracy and adequacy of the calculations, which will remain the
sole responsibility of the Developer.

2. Documentation showing that the excavation support system and permanent structure
adjacent to the TTC property are designed for apparent “at-rest” earth pressures. The
“at-rest” horizontal earth pressure must be interpreted either by in-situ methods (K0
stepped blade, self boring/pre-bored pressuremeter, dilatometer or cone penetration test)
or through laboratory testing of undisturbed samples (triaxial and oedometer testing).

3. Pressuremeter testing, or other suitable in-situ testing (such as dilatometer or cone


penetration tests), must be carried out to confirm the Elastic modulus of the soil (E and
Er) and variation with depth for use in modelling to confirm that there are no impacts to
the TTC structure. If pressuremeter testing is carried out, each test must contain at least
three unload-reload loops.

4. Shear wave velocity geophysical testing, such as multichannel analysis of surface waves
(MASW), must be carried out to a depth of 30m to confirm the shear wave velocity
below the site in support of geotechnical design.

December 2018 Page 9 of 37


5. For excavations within a zone of influence that has the potential to induce movement of
TTC structures, a finite element or finite difference soil-structure interaction model must
be provided to estimate the potential effects on the TTC structure. If the excavation is
within 3m of a TTC underground structure or tunnel, sufficient geotechnical
investigation must be carried out to support a linear or non-linear constitutive soil model
or suitable constitutive rock model to accurately estimate ground movements. Sufficient
geotechnical investigation requirements include:

a. in cohesive soils and glacial tills: PQ soil coring/Shelby tube sampling, triaxial/direct
shear tests, oedometer tests and unconfined compressive strength tests;
b. in non-cohesive soils (sands and silts): PQ coring/Shelby tube sampling, and direct
shear/triaxial tests, and iii) in rock: HQ rock coring, unconfined compressive strength
tests with elastic modulus measurements (as per ASTM D7012), and in situ rock
pressuremeter (borehole dilatometer) testing.

At least three of each of the above laboratory tests is required, with the total number of
tests to be assessed to adequately support the soil-structure modelling.

6. Structural drawings including caisson/foundation plans, sections and details, floor plans,
column and wall schedules and loads on foundation for the development. Show the
relationship of the development to TTC’s structure in both plan and section.

7. Provide a report on demolition and structural assessment if requested by the TTC. The
report shall include, but not be limited to the following:

a. Site description;
b. Building description for the building to be demolished;
c. Structural assessment derived from the field investigation and available record
drawings for the structural system to be demolished;
d. Demolition method to be used in removing superstructure, substructure, or removal
of part of TTC structure;
e. List and provide details of weight, size, track length, swing, lifting capacity, etc. of
equipment / plant to be deployed;
f. Demolition procedures and stages with drawings;
g. Proposed safety and environmental protection measures;
h. Record drawings of the structure to be removed;
i. Photos of the site and structure.

8. Shoring design criteria and description of excavation and shoring methods.

Note: Tie-backs shall be kept a minimum of 3m away from all TTC structures if the tie-
backs are pressure-grouted. Packers shall be used for pressure-grouting. Tie-backs can
be placed a minimum of 1.5m from all TTC structures only if the tie-backs are not
pressure-grouted. The maximum grouting pressures for all tie-backs that are within 6m
of subway structures shall be specified on the drawings. Tie-backs that are above any
parts of TTC structures and within 10m of TTC structure’s exterior walls may need to
be de-stressed. The requirement for de-stressing of tie-backs will be determined by TTC
on a case by case basis during the Development Review.

December 2018 Page 10 of 37


9. Ground water control plan, including the determination of the short-term (during
construction) and long-term effects of dewatering on the TTC structure, and provision of
assurances that the influence of dewatering will have no impact on the TTC structure. If
a TTC structure is exposed due to construction of the development, the Developer shall
design and install a TTC accepted water proofing and drainage system for the affected
TTC structure.

10. Monitoring Plan for movement of the shoring and TTC structure prior to and during
construction of the development, including Action Protocol. A generic sample document
that shows the values of Review and Alert levels and corresponding Action Protocol is
attached to this Guide as Appendix III.

11. Site servicing plans which show the utility installations proposed through or adjacent to
TTC property. This plan shall show TTC utility connections where associated municipal
connections are to be modified.

12. Landscaping plans and details including potential impact on subway structures.

13. At the discretion of TTC, and depending upon the nature of the development itself,
Mechanical and Electrical drawings may also be required.

14. A pre-construction Condition Survey of the TTC structure, including a Survey to confirm
locations of existing walls and foundations of the TTC structure. A post-construction
Condition Survey as a means of observing any new structural or non-structural
deficiencies or damage to TTC structures will be required upon completion of the
development. The requirements for the Condition Surveys are shown in Appendix IV.

15. Crane locations, loadings with other pertinent details, such as, axle loads and
configuration, outrigger loads and configuration, size of the spread for each outrigger,
lifting area diagram, maximum/minimum loads on each leg/outrigger. Additionally, the
Developer shall verify the existing TTC structures for all possible vehicle and equipment
loads as per TTC Design Manual and the Codes and Standards referenced therein.

16. For proposals adjacent to TTC Substations, refer to Appendix V for additional
information.

7.3 Level 5 & 6 Reviews – Developments Overtop of or within 1 metre of a TTC


Structure and/or Connecting to TTC Structure

In addition to the Level 1-4 submission requirements, the TTC may require the following
additional drawings/documents:

1. Ontario Building Code (OBC) compliance review, specifically including Section 3.13
Rapid Transit Stations, and including a plan depicting egress routes from the station.

existing waterproofing system.

7.4 Property Protection Technical Reviews

Development proposals which are within 60 metres of a planned TTC facility or right-of-way
will also be required to undergo a TTC technical review. The technical review process will
be similar to a development which is in proximity to an existing TTC facility. However the
level of review, review fee, and submission requirements will vary depending upon the type
of development and the status and stage of the planned TTC infrastructure. The technical
review requirements will be determined on a case by case basis following the process as
outlined above in Section 1.0 Purpose of a TTC Review. Additional information is provided
in Appendix VI.

7.5 Entrance Connection Technical Review Submissions

Entrance Connection proposals will require a separate technical review from that of the main
development. Technical Reviews for Entrance Connections do not require an additional
Technical Review fee and are included as part of the Entrance Connection fee. However the
technical review does require the submission of detailed plans and specifications relating to
the connection and confirmation that the Entrance Connection is designed in accordance
with TTC Design Standards. The following is a list of submission requirements regarding the
Entrance Connection technical review.

1. Details of stairs, doors, sprinklers and ventilation for the development connection.

2. Architectural finish materials selection, including samples.

3. Wayfinding and signage plans and specifications, designed in accordance with TTC’s

6. The Developer may also be required to initiate an Electrical Load Study to determine if
power is available to meet its requirements. The Load Study shall be undertaken for a
period of time deemed to be adequate by the Developer’s Professional Engineer. In
addition to evaluating the general power availability for the facility, the Load Study shall
evaluate the portion of the electrical system that may be impacted by the connection of
the new load. The Load Study report shall evaluate also the impact of seasonal load on
the system, if required. The Load Study shall specify the point of recommended
connection for the proposed new load. The Load Study shall also specify the main
breaker to be installed in the TTC switchboard as part of the new service by the
Developer. The Load Study report shall be sealed and signed by the Professional
Engineer.

7. TTC electrical distribution network dedicated to the new fare Gate Systems requires
special attention to details for a new Developer connection. The Developer shall provide

Appendix III - Monitoring Plan – Review and Alert Levels and Action Protocol

Where shoring / underpinning of structures adjacent to a TTC structure is required, monitoring of


the TTC structure must be carried out.
The Monitoring Plan for the shoring and subway structures shall include all parameters that are to
be measured and documented, all instrumentation and equipment to be used and a drawing
showing location and type of monitoring instruments. The plan shall also include the value of the
Review Level and the Alert Level and the corresponding Action Protocol.

The following review and alert levels apply to TTC structures and shoring.
Review Level Alert Level
Station and Tunnel 2mm movement, includes 3mm movement, includes
Box Structure displacement, deformation displacement, deformation and
and rotation rotation
Circular Tunnel 3mm differential movement 5mm differential movement over
over 9.4m track length 9.4m track length

6mm movement, includes 10mm movement, includes


displacement, deformation displacement, deformation and

structure is within
10mm maximum movement 15mm maximum movement
shoring Zone of
Influence

All monitoring results for TTC Structures, underpinning and shoring shall be provided to the TTC
within 24hrs when Alert Level is reached, otherwise weekly monitoring reports are required. The
following monitoring frequencies should be followed, where required.

1. Electro levels within TTC structures: continuous real time monitoring.


2. Precision survey carried out on a case by case basis.
3. Inclinometer readings on a twice weekly basis.

Review Level: If the displacement of the TTC structures or shoring reaches the value of the Review
Level, the Developer shall conduct a review of the work completed with the area noted for the
movement, and the Developer shall assess whether it is necessary to alter the method or sequence
of construction.

December 2018 Page 29 of 37


Alert Level: If the displacement of the TTC structures or shoring reaches the value of the Alert
Level, the Developer shall contact TTC immediately, and make the works secure and cease further
work in the “affected” area. The Developer shall conduct a review of the monitoring and the work
completed within the area of movement, and issues the results and comments to TTC. The
Developer shall develop a remedy that is satisfactory to TTC. TTC will allow the Developer to
resume work in the “affected” area only when the Developer has implemented corrective measures.

December 2018 Page 30 of 37


Appendix IV - Requirements for Condition Survey of TTC Structures

The Condition Survey of the TTC structures shall include a survey to confirm locations of existing
walls, roof and foundations of the structures. The extent of the Condition Survey shall include one
TTC structural unit (12m) beyond each end of the excavation for the Development structure.
The Condition Survey report shall include sketches showing the locations and type of the “defects,
in addition to a photographic record – see attached sample Sketches. In addition to a hard copy of
the report, provide a CD with all of the actual photographs – original JPG or TIFF files – to allow
for zooming in, and for post-processing, if necessary, to improve visibility. Show all photograph
locations on the plans.

Measure the size of the cracks with a gauge and identify them in the written text of the report –
see sample illustrations on following sheets.

Standard industry practice is to follow MTO guidelines for structure inspections, which TTC does
as well. According to MTO, the cracks are defined as hairline only if they are smaller than or equal
to 0.3mm. Between 0.3mm and 1mm they are defined as medium and bigger than 1mm are called
wide. If no cracks are mentioned up to 1mm as indicated in the survey, that means that TTC would
not be able to capture crack width changes from let's say 0.3mm to 0.9mm as a result of
construction, which may be significant to the durability of our structures. All cracks over 0.3mm
should be indicated and shown in the survey.

Appendix V – Building Adjacent to TTC Substations – A Guideline

1. The Substation cannot be de-energized during service periods, while transit vehicles are
entering or exiting service, or, if required by maintenance, during non-service periods.

2. Access to the Substation, Substation parking, and public sidewalks around the substation
cannot be blocked at any time.

3. The Substation cannot have any temporary or permanent items, including but not limited to
structures, piles, scaffolding, cables, guy wires, and ropes, installed on, over, or under the
land on which the Substation is situated, attached to or connected to any Substation
component, including but not limited to structure, grounding system, equipment, fence, and
pole.

4. The Substation components, including but not limited to electrical equipment, structures,
fencing, and grounding, cannot be removed.

5. Due to the possible ground fault step and touch hazard around the Substation, only non-
conductive, non-metallic building materials are permitted to be used along the Substation
fence and/or property line, and must extend a minimum of 2 metres away from any change
in direction and/or corner post of the fence, and a minimum of 2 metres above the top of
the fence.

6. If conductive or metallic building materials or structures are used, a minimum of 2 metres of


a setback from Substation fence and/or property line is required. The 2 metre setback may
be reduced if Developer undertakes a ground fault step and touch potential study that meets
OESC and IEEE requirements to determine the setback distance whereby the step and touch
potential electrical shock hazards are within the acceptable tolerable values.

7. All design and construction work must take into consideration and account for all electrical,
fire, and building codes with associated limits of approach, clearances, fire ratings, etc., for
the electrical equipment installed in the Substation. Snow load studies for the impact on
TTC structures and equipment must be supplied where required by the OBC.

8. It is the responsibility of Developer to consider the impact on the development and/or the
Developer’s property of EMI, EMF, noise, vibration, and DC stray current issues that may
exist currently or in the future from the Substation.

9. No climbing points on the development’s permanent structures shall exist within 3 metres of
the fence and/or property line of the Substation, or if so they must come with permanent
measures to prevent entry into the Substation. During construction, no climbing points shall
exist within 3m of the Substation.

10. Shoring tie backs cannot interfere with the Substation grounding system and must take into
account possible ground fault potential rise to prevent step and touch potential hazard to
the construction workers.

December 2018 Page 34 of 37


11. Developer must install barriers during construction to limit the potential shock hazard to its
construction workers carrying out the work of the development in the vicinity of the
Substation.

12. Developer must protect TTC cables, as approved by TTC and using TTC approved
contractor.

13. Excavations must not damage or interfere with TTC property or facilities.

14. Vegetation on TTC property may not be removed or disturbed.

15. The Substation must be protected from dust and debris during and after the development
construction. The Developer must submit an action plan and risk assessment to be
reviewed and approved by TTC.

16. Temporary construction barriers on Substation property might be permitted if agreed to with
Substation Maintenance if they do not interfere with access to or parking at the Substation,
or are not over existing buried ductbanks.

17. TTC property may not be used for access or storage without prior written agreement.

18. Adequate lighting and security must be maintained on the Developer’s property during
construction.
