Etobicoke Greenway Project

Energizing life by building safer and more resilient communities

To meet the growing demand for electricity in west and central Toronto, Hydro One has rebuilt a non-energized 115-kilovolt (kV) transmission line into an energized 230-kV line. This 6.5 km line is located on the east side of an existing hydro corridor that extends between Richview and Manby Transformer Stations in Etobicoke, as shown on the map below.

Etobicoke Greenway Trail

Hydro One is committed to formalizing a path used by the community by investing in a paved trail through part of the corridor to be enjoyed by the community.

Building safer and more resilient communities

Etobicoke Greenway Trail

As part of the Etobicoke Greenway Power Line project, Hydro One is investing in a paved trail to formalize a path used by the community through parts of the corridor. We have developed a trail design that balances community input with municipal standards and Hydro One’s technical and safety considerations.

Once complete, the approximately 4 km paved trail between Longbourne Drive and Bloor Street West will create an enhanced recreational asset for the community to enjoy.

We are hosting an in-person community open house to share the trail design and answer questions from the community.

Building a stronger grid for Ontario's future

Transmission project

To ensure energy is available when and where it's needed today and in the future, Hydro One rebuilt an existing non-energized 115 kilovolt (kV) transmission line into a 230 kV line between Richview and Manby Transmission Stations. The construction of this line was completed in 2025.

The line is in service and the energization of the second phase of the line was completed in late March 2026.

Guided by standards

Transmission line planning process

To build this new transmission line Hydro One completed the Class Environmental Assessment for Minor Transmission Facilities (2022) in accordance with the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act. This is an important part of the planning process to assess potential natural, economic, social and cultural effects and determine measures to avoid or minimize impacts.
