Our Demand (Solution):

We call on the City of Toronto and Metrolinx to work together to:

1. Build a direct sidewalk path from Stephenson Avenue to the Danforth GO platform, running beside the renovated power station.
2. Install proper lighting and safety measures to ensure safe access for all pedestrians, including families, seniors, and those with mobility challenges.

Why This Matters:

• 🚶 Safety: Prevents dangerous crossings and improves visibility at night.
• ♿ Accessibility: Creates safe, barrier-free access for strollers, wheelchairs, and bikes.
• 🌍 Sustainability: Encourages transit use by making walking access easier and safer.
• 🏘️ Community: Strengthens neighbourhood connections and makes the GO station more accessible for everyone.

Call to Action (Closing):

By signing this petition, you are showing your support for a safer, more accessible community.👉 Please also contact our local city councillor and Metrolinx community relations to let them know this issue matters to you:

• Councillor’s Office: councillor_bradford@toronto.ca, Kirsten.Hay@toronto.ca, newsidewalks@toronto.ca
• Metrolinx Community Relations: TorontoEast@metrolinx.com

Together, we can make Danforth GO safe and welcoming for everyone.

Subject: Support for Safer Access to Danforth GO

Hello,

I am a local resident and I strongly support the creation of a direct, well-lit sidewalk path from Stephenson Avenue to the Danforth GO Station platform.The current access is unsafe:

• Poor lighting on the stairs, especially at night
• No safe crosswalk nearby
• Heavy traffic risks for pedestrians, seniors, and families

Building this path would make our community safer, more accessible, and more connected, while encouraging more people to use transit.

Please prioritize this improvement for the safety and convenience of all residents.

Thank you,[Your Name]
