Our Priorities
At PortsToronto, we take our role as city builders and stewards of the waterfront to heart. In 1911, our predecessor the Toronto Harbour Commission was formed to address the challenges and opportunities of the waterfront, helping shape Toronto as it is known today.
Building on this strong foundation, 2023 saw us initiate a strategic planning process that will determine the future of our organization. Our purpose to “deliver bold solutions for connectivity, economic opportunity and quality of life” reflects our multifaceted commitment to the communities in which we live and work. It embodies the importance of environmental stewardship, community welfare and good governance that lie at the heart of our vision: “Transportation Reimagined.”
Tied to this new vision are PortsToronto’s 2024-2028 Strategic Priorities.
Leverage PortsToronto’s assets, expertise, and location to accelerate economic growth and support the communities we serve by offering the right facilities, services, and products.
Unify the waterfront area to create a cohesive, inclusive, and vibrant community in the heart of Toronto.
