  • Roads & Bridges Subgroup Report
    Roads and Bridges Subgroup Final Report Provincial-Municipal Fiscal and Service Delivery Review (PMFSDR) Roads and Bridges Subgroup November 8, 2007 Executive Summary (1 of 2) The Roads and Bridges subgroup was struck by the Infrastructure Table to identify an appropriate and desirable division of responsibility for roads and bridges among Ontario’s orders of government. Municipalities have responsibility for approximately 13,000 bridges and large culverts, and approximately 142,000 two-lane equivalent kilometres of roads. – In 2005, the Ontario Good Roads Association (OGRA) estimated current road and bridge rehabilitation needs at over $1.8 billion. The subgroup believes that the Province should assist its municipal partners to maintain those roads and bridges where: – The Province shares an interest, and where – The municipal ability to pay for capital improvements is insufficient. 2 Executive Summary (2 of 2) The subgroup recommends that the Province: – Form a provincial-municipal study group to stratify Ontario’s road and bridge network into segments of municipal, provincial, and of shared interest; – Identify, using objective criteria, those municipalities with insufficient resources to maintain adequate levels of investment in roads and bridges; and – Develop and deliver an appropriate, sustainable, and predictable means of assisting municipalities with the upkeep of roads and bridges (e.g. through the provincial gas tax, or other means). This response should be weighted so as to provide extra assistance to those municipalities that lack the ability to pay for road and bridge maintenance. – The response could also be weighted to advance other provincial policy goals. 3 Mandate of the Subgroup Terms of Reference The key objective of the subgroup is to develop a policy rationale for identifying an appropriate and desirable division of responsibilities for roads and bridges between the Province and municipalities of Ontario, and to provide advice on this issue for the consideration of the Infrastructure Table.

Highway 6 is an important economic corridor which links Wellington County and the 401 to the Hamilton/Niagara Region, as well as to the U.S. border. There is currently a bottleneck through the community of Morriston with traffic jams that often extend for several kilometres.

  • Rapid Transit in Toronto Levyrapidtransit.Ca TABLE of CONTENTS
    The Neptis Foundation has collaborated with Edward J. Levy to publish this history of rapid transit proposals for the City of Toronto. Given Neptis’s focus on regional issues, we have supported Levy’s work because it demon- strates clearly that regional rapid transit cannot function eff ectively without a well-designed network at the core of the region. Toronto does not yet have such a network, as you will discover through the maps and historical photographs in this interactive web-book. We hope the material will contribute to ongoing debates on the need to create such a network. This web-book would not been produced without the vital eff orts of Philippa Campsie and Brent Gilliard, who have worked with Mr. Levy over two years to organize, edit, and present the volumes of text and illustrations. 1 Rapid Transit in Toronto levyrapidtransit.ca TABLE OF CONTENTS 6 INTRODUCTION 7 About this Book 9 Edward J.

  • Section 4: Transportation Master Plan
    4.0 TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN The MASTER PLAN is a comprehensive set of transportation improvement recommendations for future travel demand management (TDM), pedestrian mobility, bikeway development, transit service and the major roadway network. It also includes strategies to improve the City’s truck route system, as well as approaches to traffic calming and community transportation. Final recommendations are provided to implement this Master Plan in terms of Official Plan amendments, and monitoring and updating the Plan Stantec 4.1 4.1 TRANSPORTATION PLANNING STRATEGY The overall planning strategy of the WALTS study is to manage the growing mobility needs of the City and adjacent municipalities, at both the local and regional levels, by: 1. Controlling Land Use - to reduce the growth in home-based trip making. Official Plan policies already support mixed use development and more intensive residential densities at appropriate locations. 2. Applying Selective Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Measures - where appropriate to either shift travel modes or reduce trip-making. 3. Adjusting Level-Of-Service (LOS) - to optimize existing transportation infrastructure capacity. In this WALTS study, identification of capacity deficiencies uses a peak hour LOS of “E” (down from “D”) on Class II arterial and collector roadways, and LOS “D” on Expressways and Class I arterials (down from “C”); 4. Improving and Increasing Supply - to increase the transportation systems carrying capacity, such as strategically widening roads, extending roads, building additional transit and cycling capacity, building sidewalks and improving key operational features. In the Windsor area, the success of the Transportation Plan is primarily dependent on adjusting the Level-Of-Service, and on improving and increasing the roadway system capacity.
