The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority has announced a plan to turn 16 kilometres of hydro right of way in Toronto into parkland called the Meadoway. It will be a collaboration among the the Conservation Authority (TRCA), The W. Garfield Weston Foundation, and the City of Toronto A news release Wednesday describes the scheme but makes no reference to just how the towers and high-tension wires are integrated into a park. It will stretch from the Don River Ravine in Midtown to the Rouge National Urban Park This appears to be the stretch of land now known as the Gatineau Hydro Corridor, although again, the news release doesn’t name it. As seen on a map showing urban trails, the Gatineau stretches from near Leaside to the northeast. News release.
