Harbour St; Conversion of Harbour St to two-way operations east of York St.

Lower Jarvis Off-Ramp; Shortening of the Lower Jarvis off-ramp from the Gardiner Expressway to touch down at Yonge St.
Harbour Street S-Curve; Normalization of the Yonge St/Harbour St and Yonge St/Lakeshore Blvd E intersections.
Harbour St Extension; Extension of Harbour St east of Yonge St to connect with Lower Jarvis St, not including the design of the Harbour St extension, east of Yonge St. however, the design of the Yonge St/Harbour St intersection shall be developed to protect for the future extension of Harbour St, which will be designed and constructed by private landowners.
Lake Shore Blvd E; Reconstruction of Lake Shore Blvd E to provide an addition eastbound traffic lane from Yonge St to Lower Jarvis St.
New North South St; extension of a new north-south st between Cooper St and Lower Jarvis St that extends from Queens Quay East to Lake Shore Blvd Eastbound.
