Major Transit Station Areas (MTSAs)
Major Transit Station Areas (MTSAs) and Protected Major Transit Station Areas (PMTSAs) in-Effect
120 MTSAs and PMTSAs are now in-effect across the city
Our Plan Toronto: City-wide 115 Proposed Major Transit Station Area/Protected Major Transit Station Area Delineations - Final Report Date: June 20, 2022 To: Planning and Housing Committee
For each of the 115 station areas, a Site and Area Specific Policy (SASP) includes the following in accordance with Growth Plan requirements:
1) a delineation of the station area with a radius of approximately 500-800m (or a 10- minute walk);
2) a minimum planned density target (measured in residents and jobs per hectare);
3) identification of the authorized uses of land within the delineated area; and
4) within PMTSAs only, a minimum development density, expressed in Floor Space Index ("FSI") or in certain cases a minimum number of units.
It is important to note that the density measures included in the SASPs are minimums only and do not preclude the submission, staff review, and Council approval of any new development applications that may exceed these minimums. The minimum density measures are based on existing Council-approved development frameworks, including: in effect Official Plan land use designations within the identified areas; as-of-right zoning by-law permissions; density permissions included in secondary plans; and approved developments that have not yet been built.
