There's a PDF available with more information on the announcement.
Metrolinx has initiated a two-stage open market procurement process consisting of a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) followed by a Request for Proposals (RFP), to select a development partner (The “Developerâ€) to undertake a mixed use development project on the Development Site. The eventual development will seamlessly integrate a mixed use development with new GO station infrastructure (including parking facilities) to be owned and operated by Metrolinx. The station infrastructure (“Station Infrastructureâ€) to be designed and constructed by the Developer includes the following:
- New station building and related transit infrastructure: A LEED Gold transit station building of approximately 2,000 sq. ft., passenger pick-up and drop-off area and bus bays/loop.
- Structured parking facility: A structured parking facility providing increase of 420 spaces parking for GO customers in addition to replacement of the approximately 380 existing surface parking stalls located on the Development Site, corridor lands and the closed City-owned ROW lands for a total of 800 GO customer parking spaces.
Metrolinx wishes to achieve through the selection of a Developer, the development of a mixed use transit oriented development and infrastructure within the Port Credit GO Station area:
- Enhanced connectivity between different modes of transportation and an enhanced user experience through improved parking and the introduction of new amenities and services within an adjacent mixed use development;
- Creation of a mixed use community with a higher land use intensity which will benefit from enhanced access to transit and will create a vibrant place to live, work and play, and which will also act as a gateway between the Development Site and the broader Port Credit community;
- Achievement of design excellence which will be realized through a high-quality public realm; and
- The generation of revenue for Metrolinx in the form of recurring revenue and/or upfront payments.
