Congestion Charges Volume 1
Congestion Charges Volume 1 THE PROBLEM OF URBAN CONGESTION IN CANADA The recent CAA study Grinding to a Halt: Evaluating Canada’s Worst Bottlenecks took a new perspective on a problem that Canadians know all too well: urban congestion is a growing strain on our economy and well-being. Canada’s worst traffic bottlenecks are almost as bad as bottlenecks in Chicago, Los Angeles and New York. Bottlenecks affect Canadians in every major urban area, increasing commute times by as much as 50%. This CAA briefing on investments in active transportation is one in a series that explore potential solutions to the problem of urban congestion in Canada. These briefings delve into solutions not only to highway congestion, but also to congestion on urban streets. Taken together the solutions explored in these briefings represent a toolkit to address this problem. The objective is to inform policy makers and the public about options to reduce congestion and key considerations for when and where a particular solution might be the right fit. Congestion charges are direct charges to road users and include traditional tolls, cordon charges and mobility charges (charges based on distance travelled). Congestion charges reduce congestion if they are set high enough to encourage drivers to take an alternate route, carpool, take transit, cycle, walk or forego their trips. Generally, the higher the charge, the greater the reduction in congestion. However, congestion charges can create some challenges: Congestion charges reduce congestion if they • They can be politically difficult to implement, because there can are set high enough to be winners and losers. -

By 2031, the population of the GGH is expected to increase to 11.5 million people with 5.5 million jobs. To manage this extraordinary growth, the Ontario government released the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (the Growth Plan) in 2006, which provides a framework for building strong and prosperous communities. The Growth Plan also provides the strategic policy framework for the transportation system in the GGH that provides for more transportation choices, promotes public transit and active transportation and gives priority to goods movement on highway corridors. Under this policy framework, the Niagara to GTA Corridor Planning and Environmental Assessment Study (NGTA study) is designed to explore all modes of transportation for facilitating the efficient inter-regional movement of people and goods. The NGTA study area is in a strategically important location critical to Ontario’s long term economic competitiveness as part of the Ontario-Quebec Continental Gateway and Trade Corridor, ensuring the efficient movement of people and goods between Ontario communities and US markets. Within the NGTA study area, the municipalities of Hamilton, Halton and Niagara expect to add over 445,000 new residents and 195,000 new jobs between 2011 and 2031. -
