If only the hydro corridors were public land so that the best interest of society could be prioritized.

Hydro operators resist burying high voltage lines as much as they can. There are other places in the city (like along Bayview South) I would dearly like to see rid of pylons to free up room for other uses but I suspect it will require cheaper high capacity superconductors to incentivise operators to change.

Slides from last nights' meeting.
There were a bunch, I have extracted only those that detail the primary question to the public, which is around trail alignment. At three locations, they have to choose where to cross.
For the full presentation, follow this link: https://themeadoway.ca/app/uploads/2019/04/MW_PIC1_Class-EA-Panels_24Apr19_WebVersion.pdf
For a print copy of the feedback form: https://themeadoway.ca/app/uploads/2019/04/MW_PIC1_handout_24Apr19.pdf
Note that where you see Taylor Creek on one of the panels is the slide deck that this is not that tributary.

Seems like construction has accelerated. Maybe this project secured additional funding?

Im wondering if that Bermondsey segment includes a connection to the currently under construction East Don Trail Phase 1?

The Don Trail to Bermondsey segment is part of that project.
Meadoway takes over on the other side of Bermondsey.
Yes, they will align.(roughly)
You can see the proposed alignment here:
Black is East Don Trail phase 1; orange is Meadoway, the road is Bermondsey.
You can the East Don Trail here, not yet paved in this aerial:
The Meadoway Trail will be begin a block north, on the north side of that creek.
