A controversial project to create a pedestrian tunnel to the island airport won’t hurt the environment, according to an independent report commissioned by the Toronto Port Authority.

The draft environmental assessment states there will be “no permanent significant environmental effects” and “minimal” construction impacts from digging a 123-metre tunnel from Eireann Quay at the bottom of Bathurst St. to the Billy Bishop island airport.

The draft report brings the port authority a step closer to the planned $45 million tunnel, for which construction is expected to start in 2011.
